bilnic Valued Member United Kingdom 114 Posts	Posted 07/03/2011 12:53 pm Here is an interesting thought for you. Is it Gold? The weight might help us decide. The first two books that I looked at have a reference to "Proof" and "Gold Proof" against 1663. The nominal weight in Silver would be about 30 grams, but in Gold it would be about 60 grams. There are other aspects of the 1663 Crown mentioned, so if you could provide illustrations (you can use a scanner if a suitable camera is not available), this would be useful. Let's hope that you're the lucky one! Bill. Report this Post to the Staff
endeavour1 New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 07/03/2011 1:45 pm Thank you Bill , I don't have scale , But I would certainly take it to a local pawn shop , for the weight . I noticed a guy ( collector in england ) selling for 3200 pounds , And I'm staring at the same coin . I noticed the shilling and crown 1663 has the same design front face & back with flag/banners ? england / scots / ireland / french ( 3 leaves ) I hope it is the ONE lol . Thank you Report this Post to the Staff
bilnic Valued Member United Kingdom 114 Posts	Posted 07/03/2011 1:50 pm I'll have a look at the details added to your first post, but later when I've got a bit more time. Here's hoping! Bill. Report this Post to the Staff
