    I would pay $6 for that coin. Lovely find, I'd say it grades F.

    physics-fan3.14 You got any more of them.... prooflikes?

    For $6, its really hard to go wrong with just about anything (unless you are at McDonalds - then everything is wrong).

    Thanks for the input everyone. Here are the Notable British coins I have bought from my favorite coin dealer. 1826 Shilling Fine $13, 1723 Britannia Halfpenny Good $10.

    Here are some other British coins from the 25 cents bin.
    1769 George III Hibernia Halfpenny Fine (Hit on edge) (I know, Irish) 25 cents, 1799 George III Halfpenny VF Cleaned 25 cents, 1802,1806, Dateless with some problems 25 cents each. A few William IV and George IV pennys with mild problems, 25 cents. Some Farthings from George IV and William IV in nice condition 25 cents. 100 or so 1840's-1901 Victoria Copper coins, 25 cents each. Also, 1805 King George III Hibernia Halfpenny in around P-01 :)
