<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 3891139, member: 19463"]I know you like to do the work yourself rather than having it handed to you. Count figures on each side (one or two). Next sort halos around the heads of Christ or Mary from halo-less figures of rulers. You have a halo on the convex side. Next look for letters (few as they may be). You have several on the concave side at right. Pay attention to whether the letters on the coin run around the edge or are stacked in rows like on your coin. Remember these are often doublestruck so don't expect an exact match on every coin. Now start looking at coins identified online and eliminate ones not having th same answers as yours. Good luck.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
