Comments

Należy zauważyć, że inicjały grawera "HP" pojawiają się poniżej portretu króla. Istnieją dwie odmiany, które obracają się wokół tych inicjałów: podwójne HP i potrójne HP. Odmiany te wynikają z podwójnego lub potrójnego wybicia tych inicjałów.

Na przykład podwójne HP można rozpoznać po dwóch liniach między literami "H".

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

Note that the engraver's initials 'HP' appear below the portrait of the King. There are two varieties that revolve around these initials: double HP and triple HP. The varieties come from double or triple striking of these initials.

For example, a double HP could be identified by two lines in between the 'H'.
