Wade Pillar of the Community Canada 2781 Posts	Posted 01/08/2017 9:21 pm Mercury holding Caduceus + Bust facing right. The auction incorrectly listed it as a Columbia Farthing, but the motif's are pretty far off for that series - not to mention this was obviously struck without a collar. My best guess is a really old jeton, but if anyone else has any insight I would love to hear all opinions. thank you in advance * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Edited by Wade 01/08/2017 9:57 pm Report this Post to the Staff
