1952 penny wedge serif

[echidna]

Anyone know how scarce the 52 wedge serif is in UNC ?
Fairly easy to get in average condition I know.
This is the best I've seen.
Any feedback would be appreciated.

Paul Holland (JNAA Volume 11, pages 25-39) has this variety as VS (very scarce) and the product of a single die.
I think I saw one listed on fleabay a few months ago in Unc.

Thats the pointed serif PPH.
A very nice one too.
Here is another wedge which shows the serif more clearly:

Thanks for that, it is amazing how many different 2's there are for that coin.
I found these in my junk penny bin

Trout, the first 2 you have looks like Melbourne.
Echidna, your first coin looks very weak in PENNY but the other one has it fully struck up. As one die only they are from the same die, so why so weak?

My guess is a later strike with some die fill going on.
Here is the obverse.

top pictures trout now I can see the difference, a picture speaks a thousand words

[nealeffendi]

Both the reverse and obverse are weakly struck around the bottom (but well struck denticles); greasy dies?
The penny looks Unc but with issues, will you be slabbing it and will it make in the MS60-62 range?

[autocoupler]

Am I imagining this, or does the foot of the 2 in the first pic tilt further left than the 2 in the second pic? I think Fred Lever lists a left tilted wedge serif 2.
