New Purchase today

I picked up this British penny today, a rare 1897 High Tide variety. It is a raw piece, but will be graded either as a 63 or 64.
One more piece to finish a complete type set of Victoria copper and bronze pieces.(Heaton Mint halfpenny)

    That's a nice addition. I agree with your grade.

    I think obverse might be a 65, but the reverse has some contact in the open fields to the right of Britannia and would be a decent 63. So overall, 64?
    This is the first piece of this type Ive seen available in a number of years.
