Here's a one year type 1793 Bermuda penny with a mintage of 72,000. The coin has fine uniform porosity, but looks much better in hand than on the photos. Full return policy. $12.00 delivered. PM me if interested.

I always wanted an UNC of one of those, or the Bahamian or Barbadoes pieces.

I was lucky enough to get a 1793 Bermuda penny that's pretty close to yours in appearance- in a bulk lot. Cost me less than a dollar! It's holed, so I'll bet you can guess what I did with it.

Yoohoo... Wayne!

Where's Wayne?

I guess he's more of a morning guy (at least, he's usually on when it's morning here).

I think Spinaker is looking for one of these, but he may want a higher grade.
