    Interesting coin I recently acquired:

    Of interest at least to me: Wood Grain; Die Cracks Obverse and Reverse - one from G thru jaw, behind eye to A; and ghosting. Any good online variety reference for UK coins? Seen "Freeman" numbers mentioned, where are those from?

    GBHP1694O.jpg GBHP1694R.jpg I don't think I see one of these here. Wish I could offer a better picture. 1694 Half Penny of William & Mary.

    here's a new addition. I've always wanted a decent Hibernia but most I saw were worn and beat up. I came across this one with a full Harp and crown. Its only a Farthing but for 30$ shipped to me I couldn't pass it up. I'll add some better pictures once in hand.

    1806 Ireland Farthing

    no i don't really I just liked the design of the Hibernia coins. i really dont collect anything modern or before 1940. most of my coins are 1700~1800's

    This is a forgotten coin which now only leaves me 10 & 20 piastres short of the British run in Egypt.
