Description: | Unusual post-medieval issue of George II, possibly a copper-alloy or tin farthing. The coin was made from cu-alloy, but it also has a central perforation which suggests that it had a tin plug. Usually, however, it is the other way around, i.e. tin farthings have a copper alloy plug in the centre. Also, as this is an issue of George II dating from c. AD1727-60, it would be a very late tin/copper alloy farthing.
