[QUOTE="Spark1951, post: 7394242, member: 90692"]Super Crown!…I have a question about the date, though. mdccc is 1800, with you there, then an x means 10 to 1810. Then there is a pillar device between the x and the vii. To me this is 1817, not recognizing the pillar device for a value. Now, I have run across coins that use a highly “stylized” font in the characters, but what is that pillar/post thing? Not a normal Roman numeral I have seen. Thanks in advance...Spark edit: I figured it out. It’s a lower case L...so xl is 40...duh!…Spark[/QUOTE]
