That would explain why I couldn't find anything. Never seen pence marked like that thanks for the info.

It's not actually pence, as it's pre decimalisation. It's one shilling, which was the equivalent of 5p once it changed in 1971.

Does anyone remember this book - there was a seller on eBay touting it around many years back as if it was some extremely rare variant. 'Rare Babbages Variant' it was proclaimed, with a BIN price of, as I recall, $5000.

'Regular copy in a bag with a sticker on it' I used to call it.

Now if it was like ASM #184 and had something printed differently from a regular copy, like no cover price or something....
