A few more British ships. The 1797 is a Tuppence - known as a Cartwheel and weighing 2 ounces. No wonder they only made them in one year.
I know this one was just posted last page, but it's by FAR my favorite modern comem, and one of my favorite coins in my collection (top 20ish lol). Just LOVE the reverse on this thing. Not to mention I paid less than melt for it.
Sorry to visit so late at this thread #1 The space shuttle is a ship right? I won't bore you all with Mercury, Gemini, & Apollo medals again. #2 The 1935 Estonia 1 Kroon coin is apparently tough to get in high grade. #3 La Pinta of famed Columbus voyages in silver. It's not a coin but I couldn't resist posting it again.
Heres my absolute favorite Ship coin and what sparked my interest in collecting nautical themed coins (boats, lighthouses, fish, etc)
