Congrats on pulling another colonial copper from one of my sites :icon_thumright:. I am not sure if you don't have another KGII halfpenny - which isn't a bad thing at all. The bottom of the bust doesn't look quite as arched as the example of the Queen Ann halfpenny. But I could definitely be wrong.

A Queen Anne copper would be a banner find. They are exceptionally rare. I've found 3 William III and 4 KG1's, but never a QA. IMHO it's a KG2.

It's a George II Young head, so 1729-1739. And it's probably a halfpenny and not a Farthing... which you added the picture of.
