I've been given a small box of foreign coin to assess, and if I ever had any doubts about my knowledge in this area I don't now. :thumbdown: 18th century British coppers...fun to play with, not fun to catalog. I only took them so I could also take the US stuff. And even some of that has been stumping me.

This one is in great condition. Strong AU+...what is it?

British-India,

Maybe a $1 coin. 35 million were minted. 6.4g copper.

TJCF...I like that site, too. I don't know if it's my android but it takes forever for their pages to load.

But faster on my lap-top.
