Hello Everyone
Thanks for stopping in to take a look at this lovely piece. Two Pence of old money no demontized coin of Great Britain. Weighing in at 2oz's. Nice big piece when money was worth the metal it was made from.
This coin was minted by the Soho mint in London in 1797 and was produced for one year. It was not well received by the public due to its weight and size and was later replaced with a smaller lighter penny which was no longer required to be worth its weight in metal.
Produced under the monarch George III with an incused lettering design, the first of its kind.
Thank you for watching and hope you enjoyed the video.
