✅ SOLVED Can you ID this coin?

It's slightly larger than a quarter but smaller than a large cent.

I know it's not much to go on but I think we've got the top of a right facing bust and the obverse has even less to offer up.

Maybe weigh the coin and also what metal is it, can you determine by your detectors reading.

 

[ANTIQUARIAN]

Well one thing I can say for sure, is the hole was made with a square nail.

I too think I see a right facing bust, so maybe a King George III Half Penny from the late-1700s

I’m with Dave, KGIII looks like a likely guess

 

[Coinboy]

Yeah that bust looks a lot like George

 

[VTSwinger]

Haha, yeah I noticed the square hole too. With the amount I found chances are I found the one that was used to hope this coin.

 

[VTSwinger]

I think you're right. I think I can see the III right above his head now too. The circumference is what was throwing me off. I've compared it to a KGII and it's much smaller.

Wow. Great ID. When you do a side-by-side there is no question...
