One 1832 and the second 1840.I am aware of the history behind the coins but cannot find a site where any value is estimated, was wondering if perhaps you could be of some assistance. Both coins are slightly oxidized but in what i would consider to be resonable condition based on age and the degree of care given to them proir to my aquiring them.

It's tough to tell for sure without a picture, but that description sounds like VG at the very best. and probably only a G. __________________ Roy   03-21-2005, 09:32 PM   #4 (permalink) Aidan Work Numismatist   Join Date: Dec 2004 Location: Wellington,New Zealand.

Thanks for your help, needtoknow Needtoknow,the Nova Scotia 1832 coins are a very interesting part of the series,as although,King William IV was the reigning King,the coins still carry the portrait of his brother,King George IV (reigned 1820-30).There is an interesting series of contemporary imitations,which have error dates such as '1382' & '1832 over 1382'.The '1382' is very scarce.
