BRITISH COINS, Threepence, 1868, reads RRITANNIAR (ESC 2075A; S 3914A). A few surface marks, good fine, the error reading clear, very rare

This is only the second specimen of this type that we have handled in the last fifteen years, suggesting that the R3 rating given in ESC may be somewhat understated
