Snt you an email with the coin weight and list of all coins found in the wall..They were in a cavity behind the timbers of the front door of the cottage I was working on. I have not tried to polish the coin and until your reply had no idea of coin forgeries...it is quite an education I am having. Many thanks you saved me from making quite a fool of myself...Are there people who collect forgeries. i know that the other coins are little better than scrap...perhaps I can off load them on ebay for £1 to £1.50 each..when they have a free listing day. The collective face value of the coins would have been a small fortune in my childhood in Cheshire...but what a pocket full they would have made...unlike todays lightweight nearly worthless bits of metal. Greenman Sorry to have to tell you that it isn't what it purports to be. It's a copy. If it was right I would have had it in the blink of an eye, even in that state.

I have a 1841 halfcrown found in the wall of an old cottage in Ireland with a number of other coins of little value. Like all the coins it is worn with use. Is anyone intersted. It is not in the best of condition. Was going to put it on Ebay. Offers anyone
