European copper dated 1810 'This is a 2 (or 4) Skilling Courant from Norway. Ruled at the time by the Danish king Frederik VI. The crossed hammers in the date are an "instant identifier" for Norway.' It is not possible
to see in the picture if it is 2 or 4 Skilling and they are also very
close in size: 2 Skilling is 28 mm and 4 Skilling is 33 mm.The 2 Skilling
1810 is common, low value, but if it is 4 Skilling it is very rare!
Only 4 years later, in 1814 Norway came under Swedish rule until 1905.

'Soldo
da 12 bagattini Undated - what you see is actually * 12 * Doge Alvise Mocenigo II (1700-1709) Mixture of copper and silver. In the venician coinage system 12 bagattini (earlier called denari) were 1 soldo, 20 soldi 1 lira (12d = 1s, 20s = 1£ this should sound familiar to you ) A rather common coin to find in the venecian area, I'm surprised you found it in Essex!'
