I'm not at all sure what has caused the loss of proper rim edge and denticles. Maybe something to do with the collar. It is total on the reverse but partial on the obverse. Any clues, as always your input is greatly appreciated. Cheers The Ox moves slowly, but the Earth is patient. Report this Post to the Staff

Sap Moderator Australia 16842 Posts	Posted 07/12/2023 8:59 pm I'd agree - that looks typical for broadstruck pennies. The only thin "non-typical" about it is how well-centred it is. With no collar holding the planchet in the right place, an "off-centre broadstrike" is the more usual outcome. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
