Cirka 17mm, over 1 gram on my weight that shows 1g, 2g and so on. I will get the exact weight. I think it is not far from the measures 17mm and 1,37g. Pretty sure its London an Nicole, but I do not have a “trained eye” on these coins. Would it be considered an OK quality coin based on my pictures? Thx harryg

You are welcome. Yes, more than simply Ok. It's an absolutely beautiful coin if genuine. Details are how you both identify and confirm authenticity. I provided the link so you could learn and train your eyes for the minute details to better identify exactly what you have. There are subtypes to class 5 and other types that you can look for. 5a, 5b, etc.

Thanks again harryg. Took some hours to even discover Henrys face😀 Swapped for a Norwegian coin. Allegedly a metal detector find. Maybe I should bring it to the experts across the road from The British Museum next time I am in London, or use these grading companies if they`re not to expensive. Have a nice afternoon.

Digital scale shows 1,37g

Looks like a Lincoln Mint coin, but I am sure there is an expert in the Long Cross coins who can confirm or correct me regarding this coin.
