King George I Halfpenny!!!

Garabaldi · Oct 9, 2009

My first British coin I believe.
Thanks for looking. Someone found an example of the coin I found, but in better condition. I posted it at the bottom. :wink:

Hey Garabaldi,

That is one cool find. I can't help with identifying it but I can help you admire it. Congratulations!

What is the story with the find? Where did you find it? Field? Woods?

I have yet to dig a King George I. That is definitely on my goal list. :headbang:

Poor Kirky. If you don't have one by the end of the year I suppose I could send you one of my 7 or 8.

Boston is thE place man ! Any piece of dirt has the ability to toss up a super oldie ! Being one of the major ports of the colonies. And all the Rev war activitie.
