GR 1840 Aa - Obv. Traces of die cracking with fine flaw lines along most top and bottom letters of the entire legend !!! Good ghosting image of the rev. shield rim - showing just the outer raised edge of the shield. This 'ghosted' image is just behind Victoria's neck halfway to the legend. This 'ghosting' is due to the obverse and reverse dies clashing without a 'blank' being between. I have a very similar example with my example pAS except with that coin there are FOUR lines of ghosting from the shield. So this example must have happened prior to the DOUBLE 'ghosting'. Single small extra colon dot for D: of D:F: - just behind lower colon dot. Rev. Type A - Die crack line from edge at 8 o'clock to edge of shield at 8 o'clock. U of FOUR double struck as are PENCE. Date: Type a - Flat top '4' & oval '0'. All numerals appear to be slightly double struck Grade: Weakly stuck hair as normal on the obverse. EF?-EF Bright
