Wow - Sommer Island Shilling find - 1616 Historic Colonial "Copy"

Found this one in a box last night...ah if only the darn word "copy" wasn't stamped on the back...
Found it listed on ebay and borrowed the photos, mine is in about the same shape. Was an interesting find. I guess it is my 1st Colonial find CRH...sort of

The stuff we find... the stuff we find...

Always cool to get stuff like that once... but when it starts coming up a lot... it takes away from coin values! =)

Cool little find.
