Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 05/29/2010 8:17 pm I picked up a pretty good bunch of early coppers awhile back. This appears to be the oldest I have found in the lot so far , I read the date as 1675. Report this Post to the Staff

Archraz Pillar of the Community United States 3499 Posts	Posted 05/29/2010 9:12 pm Metalman- Very nice! It is quite surprising how inexpensive these are in lower grades. I have two (1672 & 1674), which probably grade Good+, that I got for quite a good deal. So have you found any other treasures in the lot? Report this Post to the Staff
svslav Pillar of the Community United States 2605 Posts	Posted 05/29/2010 9:25 pm My guess is that it's a farthing. Am I right? Diameter 22 - 23 mm? Report this Post to the Staff
Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 05/29/2010 11:01 pm It is a farthing, There were 12 Hong Kong One cent coins from 1863 to 1905, 1862 Victoria Half Cent,1822& 1825 Georgius IIII farthings,several India fractional anna coins 1862 -1889,quite a few french and Italian coins also, I still have about 70 coins to go through, some are slicks that will be next to impossible to identify.
