This is my favourite as it was a lucky find. I bought a shoe box full of junk which contained a little wooden pill case and inside the pill case was this tiny coin.  |

Sweet  Quote:
Do British Ancients count?  hmm never thought about that. Quote:
By definition, a British coin cannot be dated before 1707, before that they English, Scottish, Irish or a smaller geographical or regal unit. Interesting thought, I think what became the U.K. could be connected in a geographical sense Quote:

So... Okay thats it you are hereby banished from this thread,  haha joking... Probably not what everyone expected to see on here, and I know absolutely nothing about ancients  but then, I also planned on sharing some of my coins from the British Colonies and Commonwealth's some may not consider those British. So I guess what I'm saying is... Nice coin |

So, post-1707 means Great Britain? When I hear "modern" in this context, I think of milled coins; medieval=hammered, post-Roman.
