    Hello All
    Does anyone know wat coin this is ?
    its exactly the same size as a half guinea but the lettering is not quite the same (as shown in spink catalogue)
    is it a half guinea but from a different mint ?
    is it a forgery ? but i find that doubtfull why go threw the bother of creating forgeries that dont look like the originall !
    is it some kind of token ?
    any help identifying would be apreciated
    cheers
    Crow

    Howdy Crow - Welcome to the Forum !!

    It's not a coin, it's a copy of a coin. The coin that was copied is known as a Spade Guinea from Great Britain.
