Ooh that threepence is a beaut.



My greatest fear is that when I die my wife will sell my collection for what I told her it cost me.

Hard to day without handling or a bigger pic Roy but certainly way up there somewhere. It couldnt have been circulating for very long before it was lost anyhow.
Excellent find.
