Was going through a lot of Great Britain Pennies and came across these two... from a quick look in Krause the 1877 wide date is the common variety but the 1879 narrow date is the scarcer one?

Michael Gouby has some pictures here http://michaelcoins.co.uk./

select GB Coin List / Bronze Pence 1874 - 1901

Michael's book "The British Bronze Penny - Victoria - 1860 - 1901 Struck for use as currency"
is the bible for Victorian bronze penny varieties, lots of info not in either Freeman or Peck
