ST 1843 D & E - (Obv. 1n) N of REGINA tilts backwards. This is a repair to a very worn out "N" as a tiny corner of the top right corner of the "original" N can be seen as a tiny 'raised' mark. (see picture - above, right) |

This large/small date variety is very difficult to spot. I hope that these pictures help.
ST 1843 A or D - With Small date
ST 1843 B or E - With Large date - All 4 numerals appear to be very slightly larger.
The back of the 3 is closer to the wreath leaves.
The 3 tilts forwards (on this example !)
* Far more difficult to find examples of large date ! Scarce
ST 1843 C - Is this a small 3 over a large 3 or just a misplaced 'small' 3 repair
