One Shilling...

[jeff of pa]

since it's technically not a todays find. and
Most likely a refind, I never got to I.D.

I'll post it here.

found it on the floor today, while packing things away.

I don't remember this, and the reverse was heavily Tarnished
looked Like I never Tried to I.D. it before.



First Look I thought Spoon Tapped Canadian Dime

.

After Cleaning the Reverse To find the Date,
I saw it Didn't Have a Boat.



I believe it my be a 49

Does this "lion" and "crown" look close? This is from a British Coin...

Here is a coin that was tap'd out using a jeweler's hammer - doesn't the coin's outer edge (not ring) resemble your coin?

DANG - I locked into your "canadian dime" comment - didn't notice your title said Shilling! Take a look above your post - notice the outer edge?
