<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Parthicus, post: 2590752, member: 81887&quot;]On the Virginia halfpenny, look carefully along the edge of the reverse.&nbsp; From about 2 to 4 o&#039;clock it reads &quot;VIRGI&quot; and from 7 to 8 o&#039;clock &quot;NIA&quot;.&nbsp; Definitely intended for Virginia- I listed it as &quot;Great Britain&quot; because these coins were minted in the mother country, not the colonies, and then transported over.&nbsp; No idea about the P countermark- probably privately done, but single-letter countermarks are usually impossible to attribute to a specific person/group/company/etc. </p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for the kind comments, everyone- the only reason I&#039;m not individually thanking everyone who&#039;s responded is that I don&#039;t want to clog up this thread with too many posts.&nbsp; But please know that I do appreciate hearing that you enjoy my posts.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
