I'm back, long day so far. Quote: Does this coin bear a date which is earlier than 1779? No it does not!

Quote: late to the game again,
my guess is 1778 1/2 real 1778!What a time! What a place. Captain James Cook, with ships HMS Resolution and HMS Discovery, first views Oahu then Kauai in the Hawaiian Islands , which he names the Sandwich Islands. British Prime Minister William Pitt, delivers his last speech to Parliament, and speaks to the House of Lords "passionately but incoherently against the granting of independence" to the American colonies, but collapses during the debate, and dies five weeks later. Thomas Lincoln (father of Abraham) was born. Unfortunately, my coin was not minted that year, sorry.

And I hope all is well with joecoin & family. Thank you for the sentiment, I appreciate it. 1779!What a year!What a mess! Claudius Smith is hanged at Goshen, Orange County, New York for supposed acts of terrorism upon the people of the surrounding communities. Captain James Cook is killed on the Sandwich Islands, on his third voyage. The Iron Bridge is erected across the River Severn in Shropshire, the world's first bridge built entirely of cast iron. And, most importantly, it is the year my coin was minted!! WINNER!!!!!

Congrats! I did not guess because I think I previously asked, and got an answer, therefore invalidating me.
