Keith67 Pillar of the Community United States 6568 Posts	Posted 11/25/2018 2:08 pm Looks like a 1770-1775 George 111 British halfpenny Report this Post to the Staff
paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 11/25/2018 3:53 pm Yup, Keith nailed it. It's a British halfpenny of George III, probably a 1775 (the most common date.) These coins were widely counterfeited; both the regal issues and the contemporary counterfeits are of interest to collectors.
