Erik Goldstein, Curator of Mechanical Arts and Numismatics at Colonial Williamsburg, has curated an exhibit that recently opened at the DeWitt Wallace Museum entitled "Pounds, Pence and Pistareens: The Coins and Currency of Colonial America." It's also available as an on-line exhibit at http://www.history.org/history/museums/online_exhibits.cfm. I would strongly suggest contacting Erik ([log in to unmask]), who is an expert in this area of numismatics, with any questions as to what would be appropriate for the Eastern Shore during the colonial period.
