Mr George Frederick Ansell employed in the Rolling Room at the mint and with a scientific background, was given permission to experiment with this inferior batch of Sovereigns. He was successful in adjusting the alloy mix to reproduce them in a much stronger form resulting in the whole quantity being re-coined and denoted with the extra line in the hair fillet. Today they are very rare indeed, especially when encountered in very fine or better grade. £1800-2200
