Report NEED help with unknown George II coin in World Coin Forum Posted January 14, 2016 I believe it's not a coin, and it's definitely not George II. I think what you have is a coin weight, probably made in England, for a Portuguese gold coin of João V (John in English, Iohannes in Latin but sometimes shown without the H). Check out http://coinquest.com/cgi-bin/cq/coins?main_coin=15790 and tell me if I'm wrong!
