Found this within 10 feet of an earlier half penny find. The date looks to be 1770 or 1760, hard to see. The coin is twice as heavy and thick as the earlier find. I think one is a fake and the heavier one is a real king george iii large cent??

The larger one is probably a King George halfpenny, and the smaller one a King George farthing.
