1870: Essay for Stamp Statute 4 d. value, hand-painted in grey & sepia, with photographic print of hand-drawn head inserted at top, the perforations also hand-drawn, on thin card endorsed "1869" alongside the dated reverse of the Coin to correct the "1870" inscription; dated "17-11-70" on the reverse in ink. The above design was the subject of a letter from William Bell (19 Nov 1870) claiming that the engraving of the 4 d. coin obverse and reverse - required more work than the other values and desrved a 10% increase in his charges of £ 25.
