SX 1819 D - Obv.

 

SX 1819 D -Rev.

1819 Sixpence.- Type D

          Obv. B of BRITT is very weak. A very poor attempt was made to strengthen it

                  and the repairer must have had other things on his mind as he completely

                  missed the B and made a test punch below the 1st T of BRITT !?

                  * The repairer never did repair the weak B.

                  The R of BRITT has also had a repair (slightly to the left of the upright)

     

SX 1819 D -BRITT - 1st T over B

 

SX 1819 D - T over B

     

 

 

SX 1819 D - Date (9 over 9)

 

SX 1819 D - (9 over 9)

 

 

  

        Date: That is also a bit if a mess !

                  The foot of the 1st 1 is missing and the 9 has had a 'test' strike of a repair to 9 with

                  a 9 (under 9 - left side only). There is NO lower part of an 8 visible and it is wrong

                  shape curve to be an 8. It can only be a 9 !

    * In English Silver Coinage this over date has been referred to a 9 over 8 which I

      consider as being incorrect.

     Grade: VF+ (or slightly better)
