Hi can't make up my mind about this 1913 penny.I know it is obv 1 but not sure about the reverse.
In the pictures posted for the variations of this coin it's quite clear where the one is but doesn't seem as clear on this one.1 Penny - George V -
1 Penny - George V - United Kingdom – Numista
Agreed with the B but I don't know if the description in the graphic is clear enough:
Ole, what do you exactly mean by "the pointing of the 1"?
I think a much better description would be:
A = First 1 of the date is above 1 dot
B = First 1 of the date is above 2 dots
Citeer: "Essor Prof"Agreed with the B but I don't know if the description in the graphic is clear enough:

As you have seen, this is not how the British do it? It's either on or between.
Citeer: "Sjoelund"As you have seen, this is not how the British do it? It's either on or between.
Yes but now the British and we have a problem. You say A, I say B, rsirian1 says B (or A and 1/2). By the way, why do you say A? As you can see on rsirian's picture, the line along the axis of the first 1 doesn't fall on a denticle, at least not right in the middle of a denticle like in your graphic. What does that mean, are there 3 reverses?
Because I have been basing my UK documentations on this agreed website: http://declanmageecoins.co.uk/
and I'm not arguing about the way he set up his nomenclature, I'm fine with it.
Look through the site and you'll see, it's a tremendous work he put into it, right?
Citeer: "nzstamps"A, if the 1 is unclear use the 9 in conjunction to a denticle as second identifier.
A the front of the 9 lines up with the middle of denticle.
B the front of the 9 lines up with the front of a denticle.
It's consistent with OP's coin but not with Ole's graphics:
Sjoelund is correct when you think there where 65,497,800 Pennies Minted in 1913 alone and the Mint certainly would not have had just 4 Pairs of Dye so there will have been some Anomaly's where the tale of the 9 Lies the 1 however can certainly be seen to its Position as can be seen by the Electronic Microscope Image.
