FORGERIES OF ANTIQUE COINS corres-
pondent writes to us as follows :—" As I have lately
seen, both in Southampton and Winchester, a number
of the forged coins alluded to in the following para-
graph, copied from a Cork newspaper, perhaps you
will be kind enough to caution the public against the
imposition •"—(From the Cork Constitution, October
17, 1839.) " We think it friendly to warn collectors of
coins that a person is now travelling through irelan/1
and selling forgeries of ancient and modern coins. Fie
has been in Dublin, Kilkenny, and Limerick, and im-
posed his fabrications on various unsuspecting persons,
usually calling in the dusk of the evening, when de-
tection is not so easy. We have seen one lot of about
200 pieces, in gold, silver, and copper, which he im-
posed on a respectable gentleman as Greek, 'Roman,
British, French, Anglo-Gallic, English, and Scotch coins
—all false—chiefly casts, as may be perceived by their
want of sharpness of outline, when compared with simi-
lar coins struck in a die, and from a roughness of sur-
face, occasioned by air bubbles that occur in casting
metal ; and when the coin is large, the edges of the
piece will be found thinner than the centre. We hope
that our brother journalists will copy this notice, to
guard the public against the rascality that threatens
their purses." We insert this notice, as we understand
this person has been visiting this part of the kingdom
with his spurious commodities.—Hampshire Advertiser.
Last week a barefaced case of sheep-stealing
occurred at Downton, near Salisbury. A man named
Sne!grove went to the open down at mid-day, and se-
lecting a fat sheep from a flock belonging to a butcher,
he drove the animal into a pit, and there slaughtered
and skinned it. A person had observed him and in-
formed the owner, who proceeded to the spot ; where-
upon the prisoner hastily decamped, and made his way
into the town, and, after washing the blood from his
hands, he coolly sat down in a public-house, where he
was taken into custody shortly atter. The fellow denied
that he had anything to do with the matter, but the
evidence of his guilt remained on his coat and stockings ;
and the county Magistrates, on Tuesday, after hearing
the case, fully committed him for trial.—Wilts Gazette.
