<p>[QUOTE="Collect89, post: 1343882, member: 15445"]I’ve been slowly acquiring Great Britain Pennies in an attempt to complete a major type collection of the milled large penny 1797 to 1970. The last coin needed to complete the collection just came from the FUN show last week. This puppy weighs in at a full one ounce of copper. Many of these cartwheel coins are found with dents on the rims from being dropped at some time. This one appears to have been kept pretty clean of dents & bruises. The coin is raw but a slab will protect it from future dents & contamination. </p><p><br /></p><p>The photo was taken using a hotel florescent desk lamp. The coin is now with NGC so this photo is all I have for a couple months. I’ll post the grade when NGC returns the coin. We can all guess the grade in the mean time. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
