I'm thinking about putting this on eBay and would like some opinions.

It is a circulated pattern with some of the guilt remaining, but someone added a little graffiti to the fields...

Rarity? Value? Thanks.

    How do you tell the difference between the official mint pattern and an ordinary cartwheel twopence that had been privately gilded? That's what I would have assumed this was, never having noticed the existence of the pattern until just now.

    Is KM# PnE64 a "pattern" in the usual sense of a test or trial design, or more of an "off-metal strike" identical to the standard design?

    Going by Krause, I'm not sure how to tell the difference. It could also be the Bronzed version (PnD64) but the overlay looks like it was guilt. If someone guilt their own, I'm not sure how you would tell the difference, except I'm sure it would have a different 'look' to it. There is some guilt hiding on the edge of the devices,, not just in the letters.

    Anyone know a definitive way to tell the difference?
