SueCoin Valued Member United Kingdom 126 Posts	Posted 04/18/2021 12:15 pm Hello, I found this in my Dads collection he left me. Its in terrible condition as you can see. I get the impression cleaning coins is taboo and anyway whenn I super magnified it theres green Copper Oxide so its probably been picked up out the ground. What is the fate of such a coin?

SueCoin Valued Member United Kingdom 126 Posts	Posted 04/18/2021 1:33 pm Thx for the look. I might clean it up and see if I can make a ring out it depending on the outcome. Its incredible that something that old and damaged ended up in my Dads hoard in Scotland 130 Years after it was struck. Sue. Report this Post to the Staff
