Maybe some old copper? It's a bit too slow here this morning.

Larry, is that yours? Regardless of who's it is, that is an incredible 1814 that shouldn't exist. WoW!

[ldhair]

Thanks. I messed up the reverse pic. It should be as dark as the obverse. A planchet with no pits was unusual at the time. Old copper is really special.

[MunkyMan95]

Is this better?

 

[Hoot]

Great coins! Got this little charmer after Victor stole my former classic head cent from me. It's an S-277 with a major die crack from ca. 9-12K. Purddy

 

 

Hoot

[ldhair]

Yes.That's much better.

Thanks

[Hoot]

How about one of Victor's current pieces? Just an old circulated FEC...

[MikeKing]

is this old enough?

[Hoot]

Sorry Mike, just not old enough...

[MikeKing]

HOOT, do you know how funny that is?

[MikeInFL]

Great coins all!

 

Here are two, a new one to me, and the oldest US copper in my collection:

p.s. Mike King, this is a cool coincidence:

 

I am ranked 514 with overall points in the NGC registry and you are ranked 515.

I just bought this from a forum member. I like it!!

JonM,

 

You can now quote Forrest Gump when you say,

 

"I gotta a P."

"I musta drank me about 15 Dr. Peppers"

[ldhair]

Not sure what it is but it's copper.

Larry, your 1814 is amazing and the holed 1796 appears to be a Conder token.

[JonM]

 

I REALLY like this one.

Thanks Tom. You are correct as usual. Found one on ebay just like it. I never knew it was called a Conder.

I have to wonder what all types of keys hung with this over the years.

[ldhair]

I think this one is copper inside

[TomB]

That one is cool, too, what is on the other side?

 

The Conder token previously shown is D&H 1041 produced in Middlesex. The side with the plow states "INDUSTRY * SUPPLIETH * WANT". The edge should state "<<<<< PAYABLE IN LONDON <<<<<".

[ldhair]

Edge, there ain't no edge left, but I'll go look.

[ldhair]

It's just a wantabe token.

Didn't this guy have something to do with coins.

I know his history in retail as one of the greats.

Here's my 1853...
