Kingz Pillar of the Community Netherlands 626 Posts	Posted 11/27/2010 8:49 pm thanks man... In the light I can see he is facing to the right, so the date should be 1805 if I'm correct. KM# 147.1 That will do I think, much appreciated! Report this Post to the Staff

svslav Pillar of the Community United States 2605 Posts	Posted 11/27/2010 9:08 pm Why not a farthing? With this little detail discernible one can tell for sure only by size. 20 - 21 mm would be a farthing (then the date has to be 1806). 27 mm would be a half (then the date has to be 1805) Report this Post to the Staff

Kingz Pillar of the Community Netherlands 626 Posts	Posted 11/27/2010 9:50 pm it's 27mm so probably a 1/2 penny :) but thanks for pointing out! Report this Post to the Staff
