    The Lincoln Memorial in the making. Not a coin. I'll remove it if you wish.

    Georgvis Triumphos. George Triumphs. Honors Washington for winning the Revolutionary War. 1783. The first Washington token and the only one actually minted in 1783. Minted in England it carries the bust of George the third who LOST the war.

    known to have been circulated in Virginia, Georgia and Jamaica. Rumored to have been used in Florida. Found this metal detecting the home site of the famous traitor, pirate and highwayman, Daniel McGirts, in NE Florida. This and a second found in St Augustine, 50 miles away , proved its distribution in Florida.

    My first thought was, “but I don’t collect Memorial cents!” But then I remembered I made an exception in the case of this incredibly toned SMS coin from my birthyear.

    And if you’ll pardon a slight Darkside diversion here on the US Coin forum, this German commemorative is definitely a “memorial” coin.

    Obverse: the Völkerschlachtdenkmal (Monument to the Battle of the Nations).

    Really, this is a two(2) for one(1) "memorial" photo...the Vietnam Veterans is the primary focus with part of the Washington in the background. Think the latter is officially the Washington "Monument" but is referred to by many as the Washington Memorial. Nice design/coin.

    Can't locate any trademarks/mint ID on this, but like the coin/medal. Same Jefferson head as on the nickel. Do you know which mint (thought maybe Franklin but again, not seeing any fm mark)...?
