gaz New Member United Kingdom 1 Posts	Posted 10/27/2017 1:17 pm Hi there, My first post onto the forum website. I am having a little diffculty identifying this coin and I wondered if there were any William and Mary coin experts out there? I inherited a coin collection and have identified nearly all of them and now have turned to the internet in an effort to identify some problem coins - this being one of them. It comes with a note William and Mary 17th century, that is all. I would like to know if possible what sort of coin it is, be it a commemorative coin, whether it has a denomination, or whether indeed it is British or from the old German states? Thanks in advance.

All genuine William & Mary coins have the portraits of the two monarchs on the same side of the coin. The person you inherited your collection from was probably a collector and probably bought this coin as a souvenir piece. Sorry, but numismatic value equal to zero, if it's silver maybe worth bullion. Edited by TheCoinDom 10/27/2017 4:45 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Edge can be as pictured, if cast. There are lots of cast medals of this period. A lot of them had their edges mechanically finished, this one seems to have not been through this process. What is the weight and diameter? Report this Post to the Staff
