Habour find ID

Post by Melting Pot »

Went down to the harbour where my boat is moored and after the big tides we have just had thought i would have a scratch around the high water mark found a copper coin dated 186- or 188- carnt make out last couple of numbers but thats as close as i can make out. Also found two silver threepence coins one is1832 the other 1817 i think, could someone ID the copper for me please.

thanks
john.
