One side has Cornwal Lis. I nd on it the other British Faks (not sure about this last bit coin is worn) and a seated Brittania and the date 1767
They do, but depending on how your connection is (phone?), they may take a while to load: Two images, each has more than 4 MB. And sorry, I cannot answer the question in the first post ... Christian
It is an Evasion Halfpenny - listed in my Withers book as #70 - Cornwal Lis Ind, with British Tars on the reverse. Date should be 1797, so this could be a variant or mistrike. Made in the US in the years following Independence as a loose imitation of the British 18th Century Halfpennies, and used as currency. These are much collected - this one appears to be quite scarce with a price in the book of GBP 70 in fair condition!
