1832 NS Penny, Unknown Halfpenny and Two Colonials that need an ID.

[GioTheGreek]

Greetings,

Spring is here!

1832 Nova Scotia One Penny, with some meat on the bone. I know Rick.... boring. :P

Unknown Half Penny - I can make out the shield on the reverse. The other side is toast.

This one, I need help with. My buddy found it. One side is blank. The other side has this. I haven't seen this style before. 35 mm

This one my buddy also found. Is it French? Portuguese? It has a very weird wreath, with a pillar? and some letters next to the pillar.

Thanks for you help, guys.

Happy hunting!

Possibly French with a FASCES on the reverse, also looks like a liberty cap above the fasces.....Joe McDonough

 

[GioTheGreek]

Ah yes, that looks like it. French.... It's not a sol, or centime. I remember seeing a D next to the fasces when i held it. So , it would be a Decime?

Thanks joesmarbles!

 

[GioTheGreek]

I think this is the French one, 12 Deniers. Coin: 12 Denier (France) (1774~1792 - Louis XVI) WCC:km600

Withers token! Right on, Iron Patch. Thanks, man.

Too bad the halfpenny isn't better. You're digging your way to a good one though!

 

[GioTheGreek]

Thanks, IP. It's a good site that keeps on giving. If only we had more time to hunt. haha

[GioTheGreek]

Ahhhh, Crete. I spent a little bit of time there. 2 Weeks in Chania. I still remember the beautiful beaches on the west coast of the island, and the fantastic food. Nice people, too. It would be nice to do some detecting there, eh?

 

[joesmarbles]

I was most fortunate to live there for 3 years, 3 months, and 3 days. Would have loved to retire there but it is a mess now, breaks my heart....Joe

 

[decbra]

You're off and running this year, just that slight white pause huh? you've picked up right where you left off with some nice old colonial coppers!
