    Hello, first time here. I found this coin in my dad’s things. It was fun researching. Can anyone confirm my identification? coin.jpg coin2.jpg

    I agree with Crispus. Can’t speak to the attribution though

    Hearty welcome, @Julie0505. Regarding the attribution, you've already got me beat, having any sort of access to RIC. (...Is that online somewhere? no idea, apart from citations, whether on Wildwinds --haven't gotten that far-- or my, um, antiquated edition of Sear.)
    In a similar vein, your research (Ditto --not that I vote like that: ) already has me beat.
    --Late-breaking News Flash: just looked at the Wildwinds site; from here, it's looking very much like you nailed it.
