Couple coppers today! Need help with ID on one

Hit an older property today and got a couple usual buttons but also an 1828 half cent, and what I thought was a KGIII halfpenny. I’m not so sure that’s the case but I’m not familiar. On the obverse it looks like it may have an “R” around 10 o’clock and the reverse letters don’t seem to be Britannia. What do you guys think?

Thank you! I was thinking a possible state copper but wasn’t sure. Now that you mentioned it, looks like “CO” is visible on the obverse.

Yes, and the style of the bust as well as the reverse looking more like ET LIB than NIA. All added up it's a pretty sure thing.
