That George III might be a much better piece that you think. It might have the Immune Columbia reverse. I've been collecting colonials for 30 years and sometimes things just stick out. A couple of these pieces have already been found with metal detectors. Here's what I think is a possibility.

After looking closer comparing the two, it's not. The small size immediately led me to a counterfeit piece and I know a lot of those Immune Columbia pieces are a smaller diameter. Probably just a counterfeit George III. Could be a Machin's piece, but not enough detail to ever know.
