Hello and once again thank you for adding me to the forum.

Ive had coins for over 38 years and its been a mixture of well its old so of interest and give it to him to keep him quiet.

a hoard was given from my mother that were her fathers, all very old, worn and even some were drilled.

I took the worn out ones and had them appraised by local coin experts, sadly just scrap value, it was a hard day choice 

but sold off them and bought a sovereign coin, time moves of and i then added Guineas, these will be a show and tell later on.

I hope this is for interest for today. I will show the 1 Scudo, I had no idea of when or how much.. it wouldn't have been that much in them days i do remember it was before computers so 1992 ish

Sanctvs . Marc . Venet 1624-1629

Not bad - seems to be worth close to twice the melt value even in quite worn condition.
