i think i payed .50 cents for it.. unfortunatly being on govt assistance i cant spend alot on coins . have one coin inlayed in a ring.. a silver roman coin antonius pius
Portugal 10 Reis 1764
Copper, 33mm, 11.09gm, $2.00
American metal detectors regularly find these coins and I wonder how many foreign copper coins circulated in the American colonies along with the known British copper coins and various copper tokens.
your portuguese coin looks in better shape then mine ..... do you have any info that can help me with the 2 other coins i posted in here. i dont know much about them
thank you very much. @BillDugan1959 ... hard to get better looking specimens .. the shop isnt too well organised at the moment as its in the midst of having moved from another location
