[QUOTE="mark240590, post: 1604342, member: 39953"]Why were there no copper pennies struck until George III ? Well, I can't see any that is.. I find it curious that the 1/2d and 1/4d were copper though and only 1p were maundy and silver.. If its right I will just collect the 1/2d instead as a penny :) here's my battle plan as it stands until someone confirms there was a penny and it all goes out the window (face and palm at the ready..) For now I'm starting at Charles II and moving forward I have almost all of the more modern pennies both QEII, KGVI I have the 1949 coming too get the other variety, KGV (missing the ME penny) Edward VII high and low tide, Victoria low tide but higher than Edwards, 3rd and 2nd portrait, just need her earlier coins with trident varieties and without the value, need William IV have George IV, KGIII need his earlier types of 1/2d , KGII have 1/2d, George 1/2d dump 1718, need an Anne, need William III have William and Mary 1694 (date in exergue) need James II and Charles. After I complete this hit list with atleast one per monarch I intend to head back too the commonwealth days and maybe the last king before it, then I will stop and add the varieties and the pennies of Ireland and Scotland as seperate enterties :D[/QUOTE]
