The Queen Victoria Pennies issued from 1860 to 1895(?) were referred to as "Bun Pennies" due to Queen Victoria having her hair tied in a bun.
The bun pennies (and halfpennies) were issued from 1860 to 1894.
Same with farthings (quarter pennies), but there are scarce 1895 bun farthings.

They were followed by the Veiled Bust or Old Head, in 1895.
