Spanish Cob and a mystery copper

[toasted]

Ive been wanting to look for a new water site but I keep going back to this one and it has yet to let me down. Scored cob #8 this evening. A full weight Phillip V half real. Also got a really toasted milled silver. Pretty sure I saw a bust and a date of 179? on it before I ruined it trying to make it look better Have not found much stuff dated later than circa 1720 out there but Ill take it Also got a copper that resembles a Hibernia half penny but this one looks strange to me. Appears to have a right facing bust on the other side. No other keeers other than the little floral leather mount piece

They changed the orientation of the Harp for Irish coins from James I onwards, so in theory its post-1603. However, even though I can see the crown above the harp, it's not like any known Irish coin I have seen. Picture the Obverse please?

Looks to be a counterfeit from from the Simian family. Here's an example.

Both coins are nice finds.
