    If I had the cash, I'd jump all over the 1st one - looks like it qualifies as an indian head copper to me. image

    Very nice coins, but they probably do not qualify for my Colonial Type Set for the Masses™. image

    With regards to the indigenous people, you have to wonder about the irony of the coins inscription.....

    "And the design is among the most interesting of this era, featuring a folk-art style Indian and the legend LIBER NATUS LIBERTATEM DEFENDO (translated as "Born free, I defend freedom"), coupled with the New York state arms on the reverse."

    Glad you didn't use autochthonous people as that would have been a bit much! imageimage

    Websters 2b reflects the heterochthonous peoples thoughts at the time.

    found in a locality in which it originates, as an infectious disease.

    Wow. I don't think they teach words like autochthonous or heterochthonous where I'm from. I'm lost... image
