1852 Reverse & Date varieties

1852 groats are Very Rare as there was only a very small mintage 31,300.

It is a coin not often found on dealers list.

      

GR 1852 A - Obv.

 

GR 1852 A - Rev.

GR 1852 A - Date

GR 1852 A - date  (2 over 2)

Groat 1852 A - Rev. Type A - Original font PENCE

                         Date: The 52 are only very slightly larger numerals than the 18

                                   The 5 has been badly entered as it tilts backwards                                  

                                   The tail of the 5 has a thin extra 'bit'. Possibly where the tail of the 5

                                   would have been if the 5 had been struck - upright !

                                   The 2 has been double stuck.  A 'bit' of "under" 2 shows to the top outside

                                   right, within the centre of the top circle and below foot and to the right.

* As yet I have not seen an example with the 5 upright or the 2 not double struck.
