[QUOTE="KurtS, post: 492876, member: 11786"]Looking through a group of pennies sent by a friend, I just noticed one has some interesting separation in the serifs. It looks[i] to me[/i] very much like a doubled die, where this would be the [I]earliest [/I]I have found in an Australian coin. :smile A few details: very nice lower serif separation on the TT in BRITT, and look at the shape of the colons!
