Help identifying a coin....

I know my US Coins. I'm trying to help a friend out that inherited some coins from his grandfather. No problem telling what he has on stuff like an 1891 V-cents coin,etc. I know what it is.

No pics .... yet !

What do you think this is ?

also can't find listing for larger coin. says " half penny token" year 1814 on one side. 1814 is split by what looks like bald eagle on one side, and what looks like a woman holding a pitch and shield kneeling on other side

any idea?

I'm guessing Hard times token ( but the year is about 23 years too early), or British, but should not say token.

He has stuff ranging from an 1801 cent, to two cent pieces, bust half-dimes, halves, seated liberty dimes, early IHC's, some SLQ quarters, barber stuff etc.

but no photos, as of yet.

Makes it pretty tough to help you.

Probably a British "conder token", a private token usually issued by a merchant for much the same reasons as the US "hard times" tokens. My guess is that you have one with Britannia holding a trident and shield on one side, but I have no idea what you're seeing as a bald eagle.

 

Sorry...can't help you on the coin thing, but I would like to mention that Mary-Ann (your avatar) sure has quite the rack on her.:goofer:

 

I can't photograph something I don't have, so it's up to him to provide a photo. I only really know US stuff. I sent him this thread. :thumb:

 

nice legs too !

They would be far more helpful if they were either attached, or had their URLs posted.

Sorry friend - I can't speak for other Coin Talk members, but it will be a very cold day in the nether regions when I join a gambling forum just to look at your token.

Does Google show your item?

 

I didn't know it required you to do this, sorry !

 

Nope, not joining that forum. Get pics to us another way....

 

I'd be willing to host your images if you are having issues. You could email them to me. persiaguy @ gmail.com

(Its funny how many members here are gamblers as well lol)
