[QUOTE="Rick B, post: 4752882, member: 113624"]The seller described it as: Great Britain 1818 King George III Maundy 2 Pence Silver coin So if it's a Maundy, it is supposed to be proof? The page I linked to above says: "There were two forms of twopence, the currency issue like this piece (with a duller surface), and a special piece for the Maundy Thursday ceremonies - both with numeral 2 on the reverse but the Maundy issues have a proof-like finish.
