kennepohl1000 Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 Hi , I'm a new member of this great site. I hope I'm doing right. Can anybody help me to identify this piece? I was told that it is a six Pence from Ireland, but am not sure. Thanks! Best, Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drusus Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 It looks to me like coinage from the Great Rebellion 1643-1644 here is an example of coinage from that time: your is obviously different and I have never seen one like yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
