ENGRAVER'S ERROR. Specimen similar to LONDINIUM 281 except for absence of star in left field. Apparently an engraver's error or clogged die. Listed in Cloke-Toone Supplement 1 (8.01.008) as a minor variety of LONDINIUM 281. See also LONDINIUM 282, CONSTANTINE, ENGRAVER'S ERROR, probably from the same reverse die.
