A striking example of Britain's iconic Cartwheel coinage. This 1797 Twopence features the distinctive large format and bold design characteristic of Matthew Boulton's revolutionary minting process at Soho Mint. The coin displays excellent detail with King George III's profile and Britannia reverse, showcasing the craftsmanship of late 18th-century British numismatics. Graded as Fine, this piece represents a significant moment in British monetary history when these substantial copper coins were introduced to combat counterfeiting. A notable addition to any collection of Georgian-era currency.
