There are three variant mintings of the 1918 and 1919 British Penny. The pennies minted in London have no mintmark.
The mintmarks "H" for the Heaton Mint, Birmingham, or the "KN" for King's Norton Metal Company are to the left of the date on the reverse and are extremely small.

∙ 14y agoThe 1919 British Penny has no mintmark if it was minted at the Royal Mint.
If it was minted at either Heaton or King's Norton, there will be a very small H or KN to the left of the year on the reverse of the coin.

∙ 13y agoMost British pennies will not have a mintmark because they were all minted at the same place - The Royal Mint.
During Queen Victoria's reign, coins were often minted at two or more different mints, and to a much lesser extent, some of the coins of George V. Most commonly it will be "H" for Heaton, Birmingham, or "KN" for King's Norton.
The mintmarks will be on the reverse at the bottom in the exergue below the date or to the right of the date.
