Hammer Price:
£620

Victoria (1837-1901), Penny, 1862, three extra plumes issuing from back of helmet, 9.25g/12h (Gouby F –; BMC –; S –; Bamford 60). Almost very fine and extremely rare (£250-350)

Jerrams in his 2001 ‘census’ only knew of four specimens; this example compares favourably with the Bamford coin sold for £550 in June 2006
