Agreed! I'm watching it to see how much interest is shown. I don't know much about the older coins but find it wonderful that so many have lasted for so long.

This coin wasn't really minted in 1781, by the way. Probably made in Dublin, Ireland about 1820. Other coins of this period, like the Blacksmith tokens, were backdated and/or made to look like older coins, even to the point of faking wear, so they would be more readily accepted by the populace.
