Boulton used steam-powered presses to ensure a level of consistency and detail that was impossible with older hand-operated or horse-driven presses, making these coins much harder for counterfeiters to replicate. The standard weight of these pieces was 48 to the pound avoirdupois (1/3 ounce or 145.8 grains). Dimensions: Copper. 29 mm. 12.5 g. Pickup category timeslot {A}
