Dave and John (CCU here) at Coin Rarities are FANTASTIC to deal with.
John sent it to me and I decided to let my uncle snag it out from underneath me because he is always talking about pieces such as this.

That's pretty cool, must have been a tough decision

You can say that again. Great coin.

He's probably in his uncles will, so he knows it's coming back eventually.
Actually I was going to buy it but I have heard him talking specifically about the Pine Tree version several times and how much he liked them. I thought he might appreciate it just a bit more than me.

and circulated here?
is the date 1862 and minted in what city in england? (i meant 1682)
thanks for posting, never saw anything like it before.
This coin is dated 1652, though it may have been struck in the twenty year period or so after that date right here in Massachusetts in the good ol' USA. Of course that was ~350 years ago, so there was no USA and thats why they call it a colonial coin.

I believe KenSteelheader might have witnessed that! He's pretty old you know.

Can't wait to see Ken's response to that one goose....
