[QUOTE="Cucumbor, post: 4488446, member: 4298"]Hi CT friends, Not very often do I post here on the WC forum, and even less for a question. I need an advice from the british coins enthusiasts here !! Thanks to the lockdown, I've taken some time to take some care of my british coins collection : taking pictures, cataloguing, posting them on Colleconline (for those interested you can see them here : [URL]https://www.colleconline.com/fr/collection-items/2455/monnaie-monde-royaume-uni[/URL] ) Anyway, I took yesterday some pictures of a somewhat decent Victoria shilling dated 1861, and went to look into my Spink to have its reference. [ATTACH=full]1113887[/ATTACH] They say there that exists a scarce variant with D overstruck on B in the [B]F: D:[/B] at the end of the obverse legend. Out of curiosity, I took the magnifier and here is what I see [ATTACH=full]1113888[/ATTACH] I have made my homework on the internet but couldn't find any convincing picture of an example there. The people I showed the above don't look absolutely convinced either. Hence I played a bit with colors to explain what I see. [ATTACH=full]1113889[/ATTACH] What do you people think about it ? Thanks in advance for your input Stay safe Q[/QUOTE]
