Hello Ali E

Can you please ask the NGC graders to recognize the variety of the missing 'U' in the word 'Hundred' on the reverse of the Copper-Nickel Palestine Fantasy coinage of Edward VII (minted by Coin Craft - Richard Lobel).

Pic 1a and 1b (close-up of normal  word ' hundred' on reverse.   Reference: Giordano FM59B

Pic 2a and 2b (missing 'U' letter in the word 'Hundred' on the reverse. The middle of the reverse circle that has 'Palestine' in Arabic also has a letter section missing in the lettering. Reference:  Giordano FM59B

I have the complete Palestine Fantasy collection made by Richard Lobel (Coincraft) that includes the gold sovereign, Gold crown, silver, gilt bronze and copper pieces all graded by NGC and the variety of the missing' U" in the word 'Hundred' only seems to appear with the copper-nickel coinage of the Palestine fantasy issue set.
