Can't find it right now, but it's an 1736 Dutch VOC Duit. Found with my metal detector on my Dad's farm.
Doubled, not double.;)
Sorry Kelly, but this is just die wear. Notice on your close ups how the metal has flow striations leading away from the lettering. The same at...
He got suspended for a day, good enough for me. Just happy to have gotten the coins back.
Looks like he took a few good punches to the face. Yep, PMD. But the reverse looks like a lamination peel.
Anything in Nashua Oct. 23rd-31st? I'll be close by on vacay in Weirs Beach area and could backtrack for a day trip.
