<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Numismat, post: 1306240, member: 15019&quot;]Just received this one. It&#039;s a toy coin from Britain. Couldn&#039;t find much about the maker, this &quot;I. Fellows&quot; of Wolverhampton, but I did find a &quot;5&quot; denomination piece by the same maker that was dated 1826. What&#039;s amazing is that it survived, considering it was meant for children and is a tiny 11mm in diameter x about 1mm thick.</p><p>I&#039;m sure you can imagine what happens when children get their hands on something so small. =)</p><p><br /></p><p>Edit: Here is the other piece I mentioned: <a href="http://www.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/opacdirect/158605.html#1" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/opacdirect/158605.html#1" rel="nofollow">http://www.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/opacdirect/158605.html#1</a></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii314/Numismat/007-2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii314/Numismat/008-2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
