Here's a fairly new acquisition. Buck 7c in 'as fine as they come' condition. I'm very satisfied with this one.








I like this one as well as your avatar ;D :ThumbsUp;

Stefanie,
  The reverse of that one reminds me of the reverse design of some of the American Civil War 1c. currency tokens.

I presume that the obverse depicts King George III.

I agree it is reminiscent of one of the CWT's.  :)

The date on this piece is misleading...on the obverse is William III.

Thanks for the compliments on the avatar Stephanie! 
I thought it came out looking rather donny darko, lol.

You are right about the obverse depicting King William III of England/II of Scotland.

The style looks like a 'Cartwheel' coin from King George III's reign.
