1772 King George III Copper Halfpenny, Clear \"High 7\" Date, Colonial Coin, U.S.A., AuthenticLooks pretty good for almost 250 years old or so…As shown.This represents a part of Colonial Coinage used here in America, due to the shortage of copper and general scarcity due to the Revolutionary War. Limited coins were produced from 1770-1775 (and then none until 1805-1807 none until his death in 1820) this led to creating of Non-Regal coins both with George III\'s likeness as well as Conder or Provincial Tokens also used here in the United States.Scarcity of early coinage in America where denominations were used primarily from Great Britain but other colonizing nations as well, the value was in the material either copper or silver, so almost any country\'s currency would pass hands.Kings and Queens of Great Britain:
William and Mary 1689-1702Anne 1702-1714George I 1714-1727George II 1727-1760George III 1760-1820
