Updating my list now, I was missing a few of those. Percy was a busy guy, unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a list of his designs used on coinage or one of medals produced. Going to check with the RM and see if they have anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking the number is going to be between 24-36 obv and rev designs by PM on coinage, current list is up to 20 or so. I'm not planning on picking up examples of the same design used on different denominations or by different countries, the number of pieces would be huge if going that route. The unknown is the number of unmarked designs such as the British '37 three pence reverse and Figi six pence turtle rev, pieces with no initials will be more difficult to identify and add to the list. jimbo27, brg5658, zadok and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice, a couple more for the list. I have a handwritten list going right now, if I get time this weekend I'll start entering everything into a spreadsheet and do a deep dive to see if I can add to it. After that, it's coin finding time. I may start a Journal here to track progress, post the list, images, etc.. We'll see... zadok 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
