Now you are in trouble, the first Vicky is only the beginning of a very very long pain in the back pocket and you will have to sell off all your silver coins as she is very demanding. Well done nice coin. P.S. please send all silver coins to my melt in New Zealand   Cheers Don

Liking the die clash the most on this one. Will not be changing my name, nor selling my silver. Just one Nova Scotia cent and that is all... Well, maybe the 1862 as well, looks tough to get and the 1864, and might as well get the Half Cents, and I figure there are not too many NB and PEI cents, could do an album page of Maritime Cents.  |

Great die clash especially on reverse.
Wonder why it wasn't attributed as such.
And don't worry, we won't call you CopperDon.
It just doesn't have the same ring to it.

Thanks very much, it is a very nice coin indeed. I was saying wow for about 5 minutes with loupe in hand. There are plenty of die cracks and the right side of the Queens portrait on the reverse clash shows a double clash.     |

The obverse legend is doubled or repunched. All dots are chopped, in a modern coin I would call MD, but the serifs are doubled and the doubling seems consistent. Need some help here Don.     |
