Can you guess what this coin description is for?

"1774 Machin's Mills Farthing/Token (NGC GRADED)Gp 1 Post-Colonial Issues F 12 BN "

Now it has a BIN price of $440, and I'll give you a hint. It has nothing to do with Machin's Mill.

    Absolutly correct, an ordinary worn out 1774 GB farthing, and it even says so on the slab.

    I am constantly amazed that people will go so far out of their way to make a coin something it isn't. And ashamed to admit I have no idea what "GP1 Post Colonial Issues" would refer to.

    Maybe I should buy an 1804 Trade Dollar and put it on eBay in the US Coins - Early Dollars category:

    as it so happens, I have an 1804 listed right now.
    any comments are welcome, especially about the engraving.
