[QUOTE="Vimica9, post: 442929, member: 15974"]Hello everyone, My grandfather, bless his heart, collected just about everything. Watches, stamps, coins, rocks, gems, cards, hotel soaps, well... anyway. In sorting through some old coins I was very curious about this one. I've determined it is an Elizabeth I shillling from the inscription (hail Google), likely a replica my grandparents picked up on their travels or in the shop they owned. I'm interested to know if anyone possesses a similar coin, if I'm right in my assumptions, and if it's worth enough for a collector to want. Otherwise it's a darling souvenir. Pictures below. Inscription reads: ELIZABET D G AND FRA Z HIB REGINA (though the "I" in REGINA seems to be missing) on the obverse and POSUI DEUM ADIVTOREM MEUM on the reverse. It is nickel-sized with irregular edges. Thanks, Cointalkers![/QUOTE]
