OK, well not struck of gold but rather of pot metal. Still, the strike exceptional and fairly rare in that it is one of the King's Norton specimen...
Hi all. Thought I would resurrect this old thread as I have not been able to find out anything more about this coin. Perhaps a reader may be able...
These are lovely and possibly addicting....I am! The die work is fabulous, and some of the later issues are scarce to rare as you may find out...
