<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SRSNUM, post: 5410081, member: 102988&quot;]Mulling this puzzle over, I remembered the &#039;US Colonial&#039; coins struck at Machin Mills in Newburgh, New York.&nbsp; I have the &#039;Vlack Plates&#039; and for a moment thought that I might have the puzzle solved...however, I soon recalled that all the Machin Mills coins have &#039;single&#039; lines in the &#039;Union Jack&#039; on the shield.&nbsp; This fact closed the door on my counterfeit coin being a possibility, as it exhibits multiple lines.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Although I still have a small hope it is of American origin, it now seems more likely that Coinsandmedals is right...that it is a contemporary counterfeit of Britain.&nbsp; Perhaps Coinsandmedals may be able to gain access to his reference book and shed some light on this continuing mystery.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
