First off, I apologize if someone else has already commented on this. I
have about 220 unopened daily digests from the two groups. So, I might well
have missed something. I thought I'd bring it up since blacksmiths were
being discussed.
Earlier this summer, I bought a low grade counterfeit copper from a dealer
in Florida. Though the date is almost non-existent, I believe it is the same
variety that Anton/Kesse listed as a 1794.
What struck me about it is the similarity in style to Wood 33. I know that
'style' is in the eye of the beholder and isn't very scientific. Indeed,
there aren't many technical similarities. But, the planchets are virtually
identical in size, weight and 'fabric'. The portraits' profiles seem very
similar. The letters are different, but have a few elements in common. The
stops are obviously different. The seated figures on my Wood 33's are too
incomplete for a full comparison, but there are similarities.
The consensus seems to be that Wood 33 is an evasion rather than a
blacksmith. This 1794 doesn't have evasive legends. If the similarities
between these two pieces are any more than "wishful thinking" then evasions
and later counterfeits may not be as clearly delineated as we think.
Also, I've seen the head left/Britannia right blacksmiths described as
"George II" and as "George III, facing left". Given their supposed date of
issue, could they in fact represent George IV?
Any thoughts? Thanks, Will.
