nintha Posted August 23, 2009 Posted August 23, 2009 I have had this coin for awhile and wanted to know if this is real or not or it is rare? I would be vary thankful if a fellow coin collecter on eurobricks will help me. And can someone also tell me if I got ripped-off for the 3-cent nickle, I paid $15 not $16.50. You can find pictures at my new website, It is bland right now but it will grow. www.ninthalegobuilder.weebly.com Quote

The face on the coin looks like a historic King, Like Henry VIII. Do you have any more zoomed in shots? Quote
nintha Posted August 23, 2009 Author Posted August 23, 2009 I can kind of read 1741 and my camera stnks at close range pictures,sorry. Quote
Commander Flash Posted August 23, 2009 Posted August 23, 2009 Can you use zoom? Or is that still bad? Mine is better in zoom then close range. Quote
Millacol88 Posted August 23, 2009 Posted August 23, 2009 Turn your flash off, and use a macro setting. Look for this symbol: Quote
Joey Lock Posted August 23, 2009 Posted August 23, 2009 Some people say that it is from a little Pirate treasure box, I reasearched it and many people think and I'm wondering if it's a Mardi Gras trinket. A little token from a celebration, like Black Gang Chine in Isle of Wight. You get little coins to commemerate your trip. So I'd be suprised if its worth anything. Lots of people have them all over the Internet, Im guessing it was from a attraction that closed down in America, and they have been distributed all over the world, or mabye they were special ones buried all over the world for people to find them. Because I am wondering why there is a king with a Crown which looks Persian, And then on the other side there is a fully rigged sloop which looks like a Explorers ship. So I don't know why those two would come intwined into one coin. Quote
