1733 Great Britain Halfpenny Of King George II Colonial Era Beauty

  

If you were a colonist in the Americas or on it's surrounding seas, this would be the most likely silver coinage you would have carried in your pockets. Due to severe shortages, Spanish silver reales and British copper halfpennies & farthings made up the bulk of coinage used in early American commerce of the era. As avid local treasure hunters, we often find coins just like these on early plantations with the aid of metal detectors.
