Eventually, beaver skins, tobacco, Indian Wampum, musket balls, nails, etc. were accepted as having specific values and became the medium of exchange. These items were known as "country money" as compared to the metallic (hard) money of the cities Metallic currency was in extremely short supply among the English Colonies of North America. They pleaded with England for copper, gold and silver to use in place of bartered goods. But England too was suffering from an insufficient supply of currency so the plead went unheeded The early colonists had little chance to accumulate gold or silver coinage since their trading was restricted by England and the balance of the trade always in her favor. Even trade between the colonies was frowned upon. They were only free to trade horses, cereals, beef, fish, pork, beer, flour, lumber, rum and a few crude manufactured items, with each other or foreign countries. The shortage of coinage in the colonies provoked many unusual solutions to the problem, as you will note in the histories of the specific coins presented in this series This set comes packaged in a mylar sleeve with two sided insert. The reverse side of the package insert has detailed educational information about colonial coinage as a whole, along with detailed information about each of the coins in the set - Each coin is spin cast out of lead-free pewter and is marked "COPY" on the reverse as required by the Hobby Protection Act Proudly Made in the USA Included Coins: Sommer Island Shilling (1616) NE Shilling (1652) Pine Tree Shilling (1687) Lord Baltimore Shilling (1658) Florida Token 1/24 Reales (1688) St. Patrick Farthing (1678) Top Quality is Always Guaranteed or your MONEY BACK!
