Hello, I have this 1866 1 Shilling coin, which under closer inspection, reveals die #63. Were all of the die #63 coins the error? My coin doesn't really show a pronounced 2nd B from what I can see. Thanks for any help.

My opinion is that it is not the well known 'BBITANNIAR' variety for 1866.

The BBITANNIAR 1866 is on die number 6 not 63

Definitely no. It should be very obvious second B, like on an attached photo:

Thou there does look like the metal at bottom of the R/B has been altered maybe.
