I have found a 1921 Penny and have researched how to tell the difference between dies, although I still seem to find it a little dificult to confirm which one it is,
I have had two other people try to line up the semicolon and the N and we all seem to have the same out come but would like someone that has more of an idea to take a look please tell me if we are lining it up wrong, Thankyou Kindly

Hi hsvwillow, and welcome.

You have the Indian obverse, from what I can see - your lines are a little out of whack (IMO).

Here is are some images of the Indian die, with close ups of the tells you mentioned:

And here is the London die:

Hopefully this will help you compare your own coin, to determine.

Thankyou kindly, yes I have been looking at the same links you gave me along with others :), and left me with the feeling there is a bit of a misshap or somthing with the coin because no matter what I do when I try to line the semicolon up between the dots it leaves it way out of line under magnification, and the N seems to be that wide it lines up both inbetween and slightly with the dot to the left,but when I had someone else count the outter circle beads after myself there seems to be only 177.... but I shall take your advice and just put it down as the Indian lol, many thanks
