Assuming you photographed both coins at the same time. The smaller coin is definitely a 1/2 crown. That means the coin on the left is a double...
Since the OP dealt with coins my comment only bears on that.. I believe the number of state that charge sales tax on coins is still in the 30 to...

I think CA is 8 or 8 1/2% but there is an excemption for coins if the amount is over a certan amount. It used to be $1000, but it went up last...
Interesting. I didn't know they had found a ship on the WTC site.
