I have spent quite a while on the NGC web site trying to nail down what hese coppers are to no avail. Would anyone here know offhand where they are from?

The first is a very small copper dated 1781 and appears to have a B mint mark at the bottom. It is smaller than a US dime.

The second is dated 1692 and appears to have the text "1 K" on it. It is about the size of a dime but is thinner.

Any help would be much appreciated!!
