Hi friends. Was out last week on lunch and found what I thought was a really sweet coin. I got back to work, cleaned with a little water and soap and saw a little GOLD. I got very excited, took a couple pictures and then I saw, reproduction. DANG! It is marked: FAC-SIMILE/ WHITEHEAD - HOAG. 1740 8 Escudos. I have been unable to find a picture online. There is good online history of the company: WHITEHEAD & HOAG COMPANY HISTORY this one site.
I still managed to get a nice button.

Keep Swinging!!
