Tough coins, it never seems they used a big enough planchet to contain the whole coin. I also want a George Washington pattern, great story of how George did not want himself on a coin at all, too much like a king. Bar cent, RI ship, Virginia halfpenny, Machin Mills, Nova Eborac.... there are endless nominations out there of what might constitute a basic "colonial type set", which I guess is my top collecting goal at the moment.

The number of varieties is mind-boggling, I guess those dies were just constantly breaking..? More research to do. Like when hunting for my NJ copper, I could swear they were all done by hand, one by one, each by different people, based on just the description "a horse bust, shoulders up, mostly looking right but once in a while toss one in looking left" Edited by TimNH 04/08/2022 10:00 am Report this Post to the Staff
