<p>[QUOTE=&quot;l.cutler, post: 26181608, member: 13318&quot;]There are connections to Machin, The Connecticut coppers were modeled after the British halfpenny of the day as it was the most common copper coin the population saw and were familiar with it.&nbsp; What are most often called Machin&#039;s Mills pieces are copies of the British halfpenny, but also Machin&#039;s also made some of the 1787 Connecticut coppers and most likely all of those dated 1788.&nbsp; No connection at all to the North American token though, as it was made some 30 years later in England.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
