Thanks Will, that has worked fine, although I had to sign up to Scribd at £10 a month after a free 30 day trial. Hoping easy to cancel before then! 🤔 

I did the same - but when I went to cancel they asked me choose “why” … then extended my free trial for another 30 days! And again - I think I got 3 months free altogether.

Big piece of British bronze from the Birmingham Workhouse - quite possibly the largest numismatic object struck for actual circulation by Matthew Boulton's steam powered machinery - this weighs almost 2.5 ounces.

Hi,

Message me for my email.

Thanks,

Obviously this bawbee from King William III from 1697 circulated as a halfpenny deep into the 18th century given it's wear pattern

[scottishmoney]

Another well loved bawbee but from King Charles II and dated 1678.

 

 

And another beater bawbee, this from 1677.

Bawbees are notorious for having circulated deep into the 18th century by which time they were barely identifiable - so this rather decent 1679 example is an exception to the beater bawbee rule.
