Is this James I? The coin on the left. The Buffalo 5c on the right was for size comparison.

Lil help for you (This is the same coin)

Thanks Jeff. I had to keep the size small. I still can't get into photobucket due to Time Warner's screw ups.

James I is correct

'kat, thanks. I thought it was. Charlie faces the other way if I'm not mistaken.

I bought one in Charlotte. 'Twas my first King James shilling. Nice sharp portrait. A little graffiti on the obverse, but that kept the price down.

It just went to mirabela for the Elizabethan/Shakespearean project he is working on.

BTW, I like the toning and overall look of your piece.

I am starting to wonder if I sold mine too cheaply, since it was so much sharper than the others I have seen, in terms of strike and flan quality and so on (aside from the graffiti). Yours looks to have been clipped some, but I would imagine that is fairly normal.
