    this is the best one i managed to find on ebay, Half crown of Charles II, so there is a base for you. I would imagine there to be some documentation on the number of each denomination found, and having a quick look about the wreck find itself, that was 1967 and it contained Gold as well as silver, even pieces of 8. so basically anything from sixpences up from any date from milled I would Imagine, as well as trade currency.

    there probably were good coins in the wreck, given they come up fairly often, and showing that, I see a fair few with the same sticker in hand written pen on the flaps. the problem is the grade they ended up in being in the sea usually find shillings from the wreck though, top one is a Norwich

    a nice lump of french bronze.

    how many legs does that horse have?
  5. scott
    problem is, you do early milled copper, if you want to get a good range which includes Charles II and William III, you have the annoying part, which is the tin. you could do them separate, but then you have such a short period for William III, then you have another problem... 1694 and a short date range and peck is still useful for this

    Variates of these? there is something... first O in CAROLO? the B's look like that, not seen many RRITANNIA, but given the R has a tail.
  7. scott
    yes and that's the thing with early milled, not always as clear cut with regards to striking planchet flaws. its has clear Lustre, what I cant fathom is MS when there is clear rubbing on the reverse raised services. I have a similar problem grading this one. great detail, and a nice tone, yet reverse has its own mint issues, but the price reflected the mint damage.
