    1804 Bank of England Dollar Enigma

    Thanks Rob - helpful but not quite matches laurel to the right - refer image I have uploaded. I know the coin to be counterfeit - plate sandwich type with core of copper. It does not match any modern counterfeit that I can find. It is 0.3g lighter than a normal dollar. The interesting side to the coin is the edge - there is evidence of squares and rectangles to edge of coin as can be found on normal dollars, except that the pattern is offset - similar to counterfeit 8 Reales originally issued by the mint from 1796.
  2. Can anyone advise if the 1804 Bank of England Dollar, produced at the Soho Mint in Birmingham, was actually minted with the top leaf of head points to right side of E in silver? Does anyone have knowledge of William Booth Forgeries of the same?
