It's the main reason I purchased it. I'm drawn to out-of-the-ordinary items. I also have an 1823 Maundy set that uses the IIII for the number 4. Sorry for the lousy image.
@cpm9ball Thank you for the likes. I always appreciate it when someone takes the time to click on the "like" button. I could have posted several more with "4" in the date but I didn't want to hijack the thread.
Sorry in advance for the crappy scans, I don't have my camera currently. Here's a Four Pence "Groat" of William IIII. I picked this from a random foreign coin bin in an antique shop. When I brought my handful to the counter, I told the man straight up that I was picking silver. He still charged a bit under melt for all of it. Only later I noticed that it was a pretty nice numismatic find! In person, the surfaces still shine through the dark toning.
No problem, and being the nice guy that I am, I didn't even go back and "Unlike" two of the "Likes". Just be aware that in the future, I may just give you these "Likes" instead if you abuse the tradition.
