1874 Penny - Heaton Mint - Type BP 1874 M

Obv. K (Older head) & Rev. h (Large date & sea does NOT cross the linear circle)

 

  

Other points of note: The top of the lighthouse is narrower especially the top section.

Britannia's head is slightly smaller and her neck is thinner. Her helmet is taller.

 

So far this is the 7th coin with this obverse / reverse combination known.

The grade of this coin is one of the higher known grade examples and can therefore be regarded as being extremely rare.

It is the 1st we have ever offered for sale !
