<p>[QUOTE=&quot;De Orc, post: 848337, member: 4408&quot;]Lovely looking coin :bow: The Cartwheel 1d and 2d were made because King George III thought it was good for the people to have a coin that was equal in value to the actual value of copper at that time, I dont think been a King he ever had a need to carry spare change otherwise he might have thought differently LOL. </p><p>The front of the coins bears the image of King George III. The reverse bears the image of Britannia seated and looking right. </p><p>the penny (1 troy ounce , 36mm – diameter, 3mm - thickness) </p><p>two pence (2 troy ounces, 41mm – diameter, 5mm - thickness) </p><p>composition is entirely of copper with no added metals to strengthen it, which is why they damage so easily[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
