I have three 1895 GB pennies with low tide marked on the 2X2. Pics added!!

Can anyone tell me what that means??

Thanks, Ken

    If you have a picture, I can explain.

    I am not sure that a low tide is significant for this date... The trident is. The low tide is a variety for 1902 and I think the high tide is for 1897. Wybrit is one of the experts for the copper and I am sure he will comment

    Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.

    1895 has "low tide" and "no tide" varieties. As soon as you show picture, we'll tell you what you have. I don't trust anyone's labels about which is which because they seem to be wrong more often than right.

    All of the coins are the common type - "low tide" (P is 1 mm from trident).
