If it is it is worth more than the $40 all by itself . Interesting .. I wondered why the 1797 was so big and heavy. In hand it really is a nice looking coin. What are they worth .. about .. I like to put into my spread sheet a value. Report this Post to the Staff

copper nickel daddy Pillar of the Community United States 2224 Posts	Posted 12/22/2012 3:01 pm I would have paid $40 for that lot all day long! Lots of good quality there, and fascinating history. Report this Post to the Staff

Compared to the Morgan provided. Morgan is 38.1 mm across, cartwheel penny is slightly smaller, 36 mm. A twopence is visibly larger, 41 mm across, and twice the thickness of a Morgan (2.4 mm for $1 and 5 mm for the 2d). While the cartwheel in the picture is an impressive coin it doesn't measure up to the twopence dimensions. Report this Post to the Staff
GR58 Bedrock of the Community United States 11951 Posts	Posted 12/22/2012 8:34 pm On my scale the 1797 weighs 28.4. After a little online search. I agree with svslav, that it is a penny and not a two pence. Report this Post to the Staff
