    i was given this coin by my dad a few years ago.
    i was told by someone that it might be a half guinea but when i looked it up i couldnt find a half guinea with such a large diameter shield. it weighs 2.2g
    sorry for the bad pics my phone dosent have a macro mode.
    any idea on what it might be worth?
