Found this yesterday along with a George the II and III half pennies.
Looked through Spink but cannot find any reference.

All Copper coins found were in very poor condition due to corrosion but there was enough relief to be able to
put them into the above category. This coin however - (I cannot even make out what its made from, I think its silver) There's no
green only a blacky-dark grey coating which makes me think its not copper.

These are the best relief images I can get with it but it shows a 'bust' on the obverse almost filling the coin, whilst the reverse
shows a crown over what appears to be a 'harp'?

Any help would be appreciated.

Mike
