B leaf to N; $10 plus postage The Copper British Half Penny was very common and accepted and that made them highly reproduced by private individuals. Many such counterfeits were created in America. Dies, casting and other methods were used. Some were made in England and imported. They circulated in both countries. 1775 is a very common date so an easy target to fake. Many that have been called Machin's pieces over the years are now attributed to James Atlee or Bailey's New York mint. 3.) 2 coins George III half Penny Ob. GEORGIVS. III. REX.

Casa de la Moneda de Barcelona, La Seca, Spain. It was traditionally known as “perra chica” (small female dog), and the 10 Centimos coin as “perra gorda" (fat or big female dog), probably due to the rare position of the lion. When the coin was eroded, the animal could be considered by mistake, to be a dog. These traditional (vulgar) nouns were kept even with the new designs during the reign of Alfonso XII (similar in size and metal) and later in the regime of Francisco Franco (very different, in aluminium), just because of their value (5 and 10 Centimos of Peseta), no matter they had no lion. $8 plus postage 6.)
