Yes, I'm fairly sure this is the coin that was taken from my relative serving in the 10th NC Infantry, when captured at Charleston. Taken by a British soldier back home as a war trophy. In the spirit of the times, I would appreciate its return by the Crown…. Plus Interest of course. Reparations for pain and suffering would be appreciated as well.
