Ok, :) rather than start a new thread for a question, have resurrected this one. Has anyone heard of, or know of any references to, a 1928 over 5 3d or 1928 over 1923 3d. I have come across an old set, I had forgotten about and put on the back burner, with a couple marked as these. No pics as yet. Any help would be appreciated. :)

Not sure G. Renniks Varieties mentions a broken 8 and a large 8, but no overdates for 1928. (Not that this means they don't exist).

If you think it's a good idea RG :), will leave it for the mods if they agree to move it, just didn't want to clutter it up with to many unnecessary questions. Thanks Uni, yeah never heard of them before either , but with that 34/3 shilling popping up and the 33/2 1/2d as well being confirmed, you never know. :)

Just my Neville Nobody opinion but the Shillings are a fake,someone should submit one for testing to see one way or the other.

I wish you well, You can never get a winner if you haven't got a horse in the race.
Lets hope these ponies run well :good:
