Just like textbook Irish George IV halfpenny but with parallelogram incuse to left of throat. It seems too subtle to be a denominational countermark and I cannot find any examples anywhere so don't know how to identify it. Again, thanks. * Moved by Staff moved to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

Albert Pillar of the Community United States 1912 Posts	Posted 08/26/2019 6:49 pm I am sorry I cannot help with the initial inquiry. If you would permit a side question and deviation of the topic, I am curious what you used to get a photo of a chocolate brown coin? I'm trying to do the same but without good results. Any tips on how or what you used to get this nice photo of a brown coin? Report this Post to the Staff

No editing, no filter. Hope this helps! She did get a great shot! Edited by wfgodot 08/26/2019 9:05 pm Report this Post to the Staff
