Hi I've been trying to identify an error coin that I have in my collection I've not seen another like it and I'm hoping someone could help. It's an 1862 farthing with a forked tail on the 6 all help would be great.

Don't forget, beyond the US, there isn't much interest in errors

Your coin isn't an error, it's a variety.  In my very limited knowledge of 19th century British coins, there does appear to be an interest in the numerous die varieties.  I've heard of the predecimal.com being referenced as a resource for British coins.  You might want to post on their forum for more info.  And please post anything back here. I would like to learn more, but don't have the time to do the research (way too many coins of my own that need research)

Thanks for the link. I was searching for it for my friend. He also wants to identify an error coin but he can't find how he can identify it. So, I am searching for a coin expert online and I am glad I have found this website. I would love to share that link with him and I hope it will help him. I am glad I was searching for a site online in which I can read reviews and found https://www.topwritersreview.com/reviews/affordablepapers/ website. As well as, I have also found your post link over there.
