Hi
Can anyone help me plate this penny red please. As hard as I try I never seem to be able to accurately plate any.

I'm no expert in that area, but you may be able to help yourself by using http://www.gbps.org.uk/plating/history.php
You will need a better scan - 800 dpi. I expect the one that came through in your question, which is useful to show the stamp generally, is too low resolution for even an expert to give an answer.
