Featured Colonial Copper - New Jersey St. Patrick Farthing 1682

There are a few ANS videos on the St. Patrick coinage on youtube. They are from the 2006 Coinage of the Americas conference so not exactly new info but interesting nonetheless. There is so little known about these coins, when and where made and who made them.
