Citizen H Posted June 23 Author Posted June 23 over the weekend many hours spent comparing images in the Spink Coins of England & the united kingdom book...... the copper farthing is very worn and disfigured after waying up a realising it was going to be a tough call.... I have decided that its Charles I, Copper Farthing, 1625-1649..... fortunately I haven't found any more amongst the hoard....and will be putting the hammered to one side until I've read up more..... many thanks "H" 👍 1 Quote
copper123 Posted June 27 Posted June 27 (edited) Look rather crude to me there are various contemp copies out there , they are very common. As they were not worth much they were often just thrown away , loads ended up in the thames as well pretty sure its a richmond issue Edited June 27 by copper123 1 Quote
Citizen H Posted July 6 Author Posted July 6 adding to the pile of coppers that's mounting......Doh and aided with the Spink book, what's believed to be a ... Charles I, Farthing Copper 1625-1649..... what's you say? Quote
