zookeeperz Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 695 Posts	Posted 08/06/2024 6:54 pm Picked up a fairly decent Victorian .925 Silver Shilling 1873 die number #5 Has an interesting strike error on the G looks like a G on the opposite rotation was partially struck and the correct G struck over it. Beautiful colouring Report this Post to the Staff

zookeeperz Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 695 Posts	Posted 08/07/2024 11:25 am @Hondo Most of the Letters are recut. It's pretty standard for our coinage especially Victorian Silver Shillings. I think certain letter fonts posed real problems and the dies couldn't take the stress of the strike. Even the repairs broke and it's quite common to see coins recut 3 or 4 times sometimes with different lettering like broken E/ E and then an F . This is the main cause of all the Die cracks you see on nearly all the Victorian Shillings . Report this Post to the Staff
