GR 1849 Cc - obv

GR 1849 Cc - rev

   

GR 1849 Cc - PENCE

GR 1849 Cc - Date: Type c

GR 1849 Cc - Rev. C - The 1st E of PENCE is double struck. 

                         Date: Type c: The top of the 4 now appears to be pointed over a flat top 4.

                                   This I suggest is to possibly due to 4 being re-struck with a pointed top 4.

                                   One can see the trace of a 2nd centre bar just above the 1st centre bar.

                                   Possible a slightly small different font 4 was used !?

                                  The 4 has a slant-up tail

                                  The 49 are similar in font size to Type b but on this example

                                  the 8 & 9 have all been double struck.                               

                                  The 9 is slightly narrower than the font used for Type b

                                  The 9 appears to be taller but this is due to the double strike.

* All groats with Date: Type c have the 1st E of PENCE double struck (Type C)      

                    Grade: pAS   Obv. Bright with a hint of tone. Rev. Tone around legend.
