M4 1683 - Obv.

A over A in GRATIA

 

A over A in GRATIA

M4 1683 (Maundy 4d)  Obv. The A of GRATIA has been repaired / over-struck with

                                           an A slightly to the left of the original A.

               It is very easy to recognise this variety due to the 'bit' of the 'top' of the other A

               showing a the top left edge of the original A - as shown with the red arrow.

               There is also a thin trace of the right leg of the A between the two feet of

               the upright A.

               There is a trace of the centre bar of this mis-struck 'A' just outside the original A,

                midway up.

                Finally a trace of the left foot of the 'A' to the left of the foot of the 'I'.

              This is a new discovery and is unlisted in any reference book.
