Headed to work and know that by the time I get home @joecoin will have already guessed the correct answer, so my guess is a 1723 Hibernia Farthing.

If you want me to wait until you get home from work I'd be happy to do that.

I just want to be clear. When I look up the history of the coin I see no mention of a patent

We just thought you were being highly decisive

Is the Red Book entry for this coin under the heading of a specific colony? (Virginia or New Jersey for example, but not limited to these)

Wow, that is a gorgeous coin!

Perhaps I should apologize for taking advantage of the momentary confusion, but there's that old saying, "All's fair in love, war and 20 questions."

OK, I have a coin in mind.

Have at it.

I'm not familiar with the term. Does this mean "north of the Tropic of Cancer?"
