<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 1908053, member: 66&quot;]They call them coins because they are round and made of metal, and colonial because they have the 1783 date on them.&nbsp; Kind of like why do they keep calling late 1700&#039;s Dutch East Indies Duits New York Pennies?&nbsp; The Dutch were driven out of New York a hundred years before the dates on the coins, and the coins didn&#039;t circulate much if any in New York, they circulated in Indonesia.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
