Hi everyone, I just picked up this 1787 Non-Regal British Half Penny from a reputable dealer. However, aside from the fact that it is obviously a contemporary counterfeit, I really do not know much about its attribution. Would you agree that this is a British non-regal piece rather than a colonial North American piece? Thanks!

UPDATE: Or might this be a Machin Mills piece?

Mods- In the interest of not double-posting, would it be possible to move this thread to the Classic US coins forum? I would just like to see if anyone over there suspects this is a Machin Mills. Thanks

amida17 & jerseyben - Great to know! Any guesses as to the value for insurance purposes?

The values are sort of all over the place but you can figure about $100.
