[QUOTE="Deepseeker, post: 616035, member: 13321"] Great Find mineallmine, and a tough one to crack. I thought that shield was suss too, as it doesn't match any of the the old King George or Queen Victoria pennies that I have. But I've spent some time searching online for clues and I think it may be a token. The Obverse of this one has some weird looking geezer on it by the Name of Charles Roe, but the reverse is almost certainly a match for the shield/wheel. If not a corroded Obverse of the same token, I'd say it's almost certainly struck by the same manufacturer for somebody else. Charles Roe info: [url]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Roe[/url] [img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/13321/1627813815_tokenobverse.jpg[/img] [img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/13321/1627813836_tokenreverse.jpg[/img] If it is the same token it's age places it at only 3 years after the first fleet arrived. Very impressive :Y: [/QUOTE]
