So interesting! Unfortunately I will sell it as I don't collect USA coins, but lately I keep finding them in the lots I buy. Thank you once again for your help.

Hello again and thank you all very much for your help. The weight is 10.8 grams.
And yes, I recently purchased a silver mainly UK lot from an Auction, and I was pleased to find a few USA coins in there too, including an USA 1858 half dollar, in a very good condition. All the best, Sofia

Hello! Could you please advise if this USA cent is authentic? The diameter is 29mm. I bought together with other UK and International coins, mostly silver and old, nothing fake. Thank you in advance

Thank you. I got them in an Auction last week. As I said, it's a huge folder of silver coins, these are just a few.

Hello dear Members!
You will be surprised by the fact that for once I am not here to ask for your help, but to share with you a few silver coins I recently
acquired which will join my silver collection. There were lots of other silver coins in there, but these were the nicest ones.
This time, Hogarth, they must come from a deceased person, as they were accompanied by all sorts of notes , and newspaper articles , coin books, etc. I know that sometime in the past you were wondering where my coins came from. :) At the time, I was buying boxes of coins from Auctions and had no clue what I was buying. In Covid, I took your advice and just bought lots of very good condition coins and started my first silver collections : UK crowns, half crowns, shillings for now, probably Florins and six pences too. So thank you for your advice, much appreciated.

Hello again!
This is a George III half Penny, but I thought they started in 1770. But on this coin I can see the year 1741. Could anyone advise me how is that possible?
Best regards, Sofia.

Sorry, I meant Florence. Probably it's a copy after Apollo, Marsyas and Olympus, plaquette, cast in cold bronze.
Thank you.

Hello! I was wondering if you could help me. I bought this item in an Auction , together with some very old tokens. I tried to look it up, the inscription " LAVR MED sends me to Rome (mid-15th century), " Apollo, Marsyas and Olympus, oval bronze plaquette" ( Lorenzo Medici).
Could I get some advice?
