1921 penny struck a chord with me as i remember reading something about it recently.If it is of the "London obverse"variety it is actually very scarce.Check it out before you just chuck it in the pile.

WOW.... now that's some information Eldorado.... tried to look just then, but it's late and I don't want to wake everyone with the kitchen light on... tried to use the phone light and loupe together just then lol... but because I wasn't born as an octopus that just ain't gunna work for me. No one should attempt that in the dark in a recliner lounge ever as it is impossible. We'll just have to wait for the light of morrow in order to ascertain just which obverse I've gouged the Grande Canyon into ,... but boy o boy you'll have us all on the hunt for one of these 1921 1d London Obverse's now, maybe you could make up a dedicated thread for the search mate, so everyone see's it and goes through their old pennies and finds for a look.
:Y: 8) :Y:

 

[silver]

Okay... other side of the 1921 penny

if only I'd found it in my cupboard hey

so here's the two types

Here's mine for comparison

unfortunately mine's not the rare one... this time

 

[Eldorado]

Oh well mate,it was worth a check.Chuck it in the pile. :lol:

 

[silver]
