Sap Moderator Australia 16871 Posts	Posted 02/28/2018 7:40 pm It is British. Or it was, before someone damaged it. Looks like the 1806-7 copper penny or halfpenny; example. Those three staple-shaped dents in it aren't supposed to be there. I am assuming this coin has been modified into a piece of jewellery, intended to show the king's portrait. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

And given that the French coin is 26 mm in diameter, that makes the British copper a penny, since it looks a good deal bigger. Edited by tdziemia 03/01/2018 3:35 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Diameter of the coin would help.This what it might have looked like originally: Report this Post to the Staff
