George III Pattern 6D

JCMhouston

Darn those guys at NEN, they went and found this one. A pretty darn scarce 1791 pattern 6d, in copper no less, it's only a PF63 but beggars can't be choosers. Since I already had the 1790 pattern (very similar) in silver what was I to do.



And the silver 1790 just for comparison. The silver version of 1790 is much more common than the copper 1791 by the way.



If the NEN guys are reading this, the wife says !@XX+$%%%.

I just love the color of old natural toned copper. Nice pickup!

I think you should be happy with your coin. The toned silver is much more beautiful - besides, I believe your sixpence has already sold. >>

The way I understand it, Jeff bought the copper version too, he wouldn't be posting his wife's comments if he hadn't secured it.

Indeed you are correct Dimitri. I had not seen one of these for sale since the mid-90's, so when I saw it had to click the button.
