[QUOTE="SorenCoins, post: 2927860, member: 73708"]Hey guys! So I just created a post on the ancients forum asking the same thing (just with the 4 ancients I couldnt identify myself). Again, Ive come close to identifying all of the coin purchases from ANA Worlds Fair of Money 2017, finally, and have 6 remainding pieces. 2 of these are world coins so I asking here seeing whether or not you guys could put some input on these. [B][U]Coin #1- [ATTACH=full]710334[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]710335[/ATTACH] [/U][/B] I, like most foreign coins unfortunately, have no idea anything about Hops Tokens. However this coins description says "c. 18th cen.[tury] England. Hops Token. 1/272. Lead." Now I assume that 1/272 is a denomination? Here is all the lettering I can make out, * in place of letters or series of letters I can't decipher. Obverse: [I]E 272[/I] Reverse: [I]* (maybe E P?) SW [/I] [B][U]Coin #2-[/U][/B] [I][B][U][ATTACH=full]710347[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]710348[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]710349[/ATTACH][/U][/B][/I] This coin's description is "Spain counterstrike 4/8 marvedis ~1600's." I believe that the counterstrike noted is the 8 on the obverse, but once again, this is the first time I've even heard of the denomination maravedis. Any help or input is greatly appreciated, thanks. -SC[/QUOTE]
