I pointed out in Dies & Diadems that the "T" punch for the PEI cent was wrongly used to correct an 1891 obverse die. The same punch set used on the PEI cent was used on the Straits Settlements and Jamaican half pennies (the PEI cent actually used the same master die and punch created for the Jamaican half penny, so the two obverses are identical). Obviously, there were numerous punch sets available to the die sinkers in the late 1800's.

1881 I think is my favorite year for varieties.

Bosox until your post I thought only the 1891 had the die used with the PEI die. Thanks for added the extra history.
