What a beautiful copper |:confused:) It's in super shape. Check that coin carefully, since there are a lot of rare varieties of that date, especially one with 9 berries. So count up them berries and stop at nine lol Sweet looking coin and so is the George too. Is it a half cent or a farthing?? One of the coolest watch winders I have seen. Looks like a lot went into making that one lol
