Pennies from heaven?

No, not this time - but I’m still always pleased to handle these high volume, low value lots. This photo shows just a few; in total there were just over 4000 of them.

They represent someone’s effort, thought and organisation, over maybe a few years, to bring this group of coins together; something I never forget when sorting and moving coins on to other collectors.

It is in fact always worth checking Victorian veiled head pennies for a few varieties, especially the 1897 O*NE version.
