George I of Hannover/ Brunschweig-Lune nberg/now United Kingdom

 

1714 George I coronation medal in lead by Nicolaus Seelander, 131mm, 836 gms (Medallic Illustrations II, 426/15). Seelander's design had no chance of becoming the offical coronation medal over the traditional design by J. Crocker.

 

1714 -- Munster, 4 pfennig:

 

I have a lot of 1600's. ill come back in 1698

 

British Crown 1713 - nice big silver coin!

 

1713 -- Trier, 3 petermenger:

 

Seems to have gone very slow here - I will keep moving it on a year every 24 hours or so unless anyone objects?
Here is a British Shilling 1712. (I have changed my camera set up - not sure if this is better or not!)

 

1712 -- Spanish Netherlands / Namur, 1 liard:

 

OK - British Sixpence 1711:

Not brilliant I know, but best I have for that year.

 

So do I

Well I got a 1711!
AV 2 Dukaten 1711 Leipzig Mint
Augustus II King of Sachsen/ Poland

1711 -- Silesia, 3 kreuzer:

 

On On then! For 1710 I have a threepence as my best coin:

Same again.
