NumisRob Bedrock of the Community United Kingdom 17998 Posts	Posted 02/20/2018 2:31 pm I'm actually getting a bit concerned about The Royal Mint's marketing policy. Their latest £5 coin, commemorating the 250th anniversary of the Royal Academy, is only available in their shop and on their website as a silver proof. To get a cupro-nickel BU specimen, you have to go through the Westminster Collection, who are promoting it in connection with the Change Checker website. It is nevertheless a very high quality coin, especially if you compare it to an Uncirculated £5 from the 1990s like the Princess Diana commemorative. Any marks are on the plastic sleeve - the coin looks as if it could make MS70: My Trade List: https://goccf.com/t/194596 My Wants List: https://goccf.com/t/191710 Report this Post to the Staff

RaZRdigger New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 03/19/2018 5:32 pm I just dug up a George II half penny at a fairgrounds in Michigan that is corroded and has a hole in it. And it's the oldest coin I have found with my detector. My previous was an 1834 large cent found very close by. I only have a few other British coins that are not very old. O.K. maybe I'm wrong! Perhaps someone here knows what this is. It's a little larger than a U.S. quarter. It has a left facing bust and you can see GEORGIUS (could be a V)on the left edge. And REX on the right edge. There may or may not be II on the right. On the back is a left facing woman seated with shield and spear. Surrounded by BRITAN on the left and NIA on the right.It weighs 8.2 grams but is quite worn and corroded. Any thoughts? I thought it might be from the 1700's?
