ST 1844 Ay - Obv.

ST 1844 Ay - Rev.

     
ST 1844 Ay - Metal flaw (indent)   ST 1844 Ay - Date: 1st 8 over 8

ST 1844 Ay - Obv.1 (F: D: - Type Ai) Tiny metal flaw (indent) at base of Victoria's neck.

                                So slight it does not show up on the scan.

*I have now found 3 examples of this small metal flaw (indent) and they are all

 paired with the double stuck 1st 8 of the date. It is possible that a small piece of

 grit or other foreign body got itself trapped on the obverse die and that is what

 has caused this small indent. However, I have also found one example where

 there is NO flaw on Victoria's neck.

                   Date:  Small date. 1st 8 very slightly double struck. See above picture.

                 Grade. Obv. EF.  Rev. EF/EF+   Bright. Scarce and difficult date to find.
