I hadn't posted on CCF since the 15th of April (and hadn't logged in since 17th of April) - that's just barely under half a year - but when I realized that this thread is reaching 1749, I decided that I couldn't miss the opportunity.
I've been planning on returning anyway.
Welcome back!

I think it is an old die that has been 'revived'

The 'A' also looks to be double-punched.

1747 8 reales, Viceroyalty of New Spain, Mexico City mint. This one shows the monarch as Philip V, first King of Spain from the House of Bourbon. He died in 1746 so this is a posthumous issue.

A 1747 British halfpenny saved from a junk bin. Perhaps someone used it as a coat button?

Congratulations, fourmack!

It kind of looks like St. Martin is holding the guy by the hair and about to decapitate him with the sword he's holding in the air.

Great Britain 1746 sixpence (the 'Lima' below the date doesn't mean it was struck in Peru, but is said to indicate that the silver from which the coin is struck was captured by Admiral Anson in Peru)
