Wide Date, High "8", Wide "80"
1880 Newfoundland One Cent · Victoria
Coin #2 · TYPE III (c1) in Barry's study
Like the previous example, this third Wide Date variety also displays a High "8" in its date. However, with this variance, the Gap between the "8" and "0" is noticeably Wider, and all of the numerals have been Evenly spaced. In addition, the Letter "F" does not illustrate any significant signs of having been Re-engraved, which is a defining characteristic of the previous variation.
