1885 Newfoundland 1 Cent E/E in ONE, error or variety?

Post by techwriter » Thu Nov 05, 2015 2:09 pm

Found this while using my new microscope and wondered if it would be considered an Error or a Variety? Thought I would post and ask for your insights. I've done some searching for other 1885s for sale and found 4 without the E/E and 3 with E/E so I don't know what to think. Thanks for any feedback or further information.

The only one I have is an E/E. Suspect both are equally common and of equal value then. I would consider it a variety. RD

It is not an error as it is on the die. Every coin struck with that die would have that on it.
