Description: This error is very scarce rated at R14 with 250 to 500 thought to exist. Interestingly, there appear to be a number of slight variations on the error. Freeman #361 There do not seem to be any others on eBay at present apart from these two, so it is hard to value them. the dust ( planchet must have been damaged prior to striking on this better grade example. As with all things bronze and Victoria, the lower denominations below penny are less likely to reach the heady prices of that market. Yet for collectors interested in errors and die history, they are a more affordable option. Many thanks . I've added close-up images of the two listed at the end of the photos. If anyone wishes to use these images for any research or other websites I would politely ask you to mention this : " courtesy of www.madaboutart.org charity" I am happy to lend my support to others but the biggest value in finding and listing these rarities is that they improve communication between collectors. Whilst listed on a public site, the images are still my intellectual property. Please respect the ambition to highlight the charities' purposes via the collection. If you wish to purchase the item, then you can use your images. Many thanks. It takes 1 minute to communicate, and yes, I am sure permission will be given.
