ST 1878 B - Obv.

ST 1878 B - 

missing nostril

ST 1878 B - Rev.

ST 1878 B - Obv. 3  Similar to ST 1875 A except that Victoria's nose has the

                   missing nostril. Victoria's top lip is rounded as per all obverse 3 types.

                  Grade:  Bright - EF+

* Examples with the 'part' missing nostril were first noted ONLY for 1873. It now 

  appears that that obverse die was used later up to 1879. As there are far fewer 

   examples found with the use of this die they can be considered scarce. It is

  difficult to estimate the scarcity with this die as probably no one has looked 

  before to see if this 1873 B obverse die type continued after 1873 !
