A day early - enjoy! Now where did I leave my Guinness?

Love this!  Thanks for posting!  I don't know much about colonials, and this taught me a lot.  I always wondered what the yellow was on the crown - brass! It was a brand new metal of the time and was applied in a molten droplet after the coin was minted.  Cool!

Thanks for posting.  There is something so intriguing about numismatic mysteries, much more interesting than coins that have all the details known.  I have had one of the small size St. Patrick coins for years and just bought one of the large ones.  Tracking shows that it should arrive today or tomorrow.

Mine came in today, low grade but very clean nice surfaces.
