Bruce,
Very nice coin! It appears to be a Delmonte 845. It is unusual to
find such a nice strike for this hammered coinage. It's an example to
be proud of. I think CNL 153 should be out this month. Oliver could
tell us if he's watching.
Thanks for sharing,
Ray

<p> Good Morning Guys and Gals,<br>
��� Yesterday, with the freezing weather outside,
I settled into my recliner with a large cup of
coffee and CNL 152.� I reread John Kleeberg's
article, which comprised almost the entire issue.�
His topic was about the circulation of Lion
Dollars in British North America and he comes up
with well researched new information - conclusions
that I would have never thought possible.� Now...�
of what interest is this to those that collect
Connecticut Coppers (or anything else)?� Many of
us have blinders on and only dwell withing the
narrow focus of a specialty.� I was like that with
NJ Coppers for a decade or more.� Any catalog that
didn't have significant NJ Coppers was delegated
to be given away at a local club.� <br>
��� As I "matured" in the hobby, my interests
spread out to learning more about the other state
coppers, and then the MA & MD Silver, and then
the Washington-related items, and then the
"foreign" coins that composed the bulk of our
colonial monies.� Having a better knowledge of the
entire colonial numismatic history and coinage has
made the hobby much more fun and rewarding.� It
even helps me have a better appreciation for the
NJ Coppers in which I specialize.� I could go on
about how much fun it is to read about the Spanish
American 8 Real coin and that it was really a lot
of money to the common man back then, another that
was from a shipwreck off the coast of Australia, a
French Ecu that might have been in the pocket of a
French soldier fighting side by side with our
Minutemen.� The couple pieces of MA Silver and MD
silver have fascinating stories about why they
exist, their purpose, the men that made them, the
economic climate that brought them about, etc.�
But I won't go on...<br>
