Hi all,
Just got this rosa americana pence, probably 1722 but the date is not visible. I have a hard time trying to find the variety in whtiman's colonial and early american book, but I am a newbie in coin collecting so ;-)

I do not have the Miller book. There are about 100 previously sold on Heritage.....taking the time to look through the archive will be a start for you.

After a quick look, I am leaning toward a Martin 2.17-A.1 or 2.17-A.2. Will try to look closer later.
