I have been browsing through my purchases and I have a problem in situating this penny because I can't seem to find this variety.
It doesn't seem special but my attention was drawn because of the spacing between 6 and 2 which in my opinion should be wider? Or am I missing something here?
1862 is listed with the date sized for a halfpenny, but I dont thinkt hats what has happened here. I doubt theres any premium for that - normal die variation.
It's just a regular 1862, dies 6 + G, Freeman 39, certainly not the 1/2 penny digit variety. The spacing of the digits, particularly the final one does vary.
