UPDATE: 1655-1658 French Liard coin!

****UPDATE:Thank you Iron Patch for the awesome ID on this coin. It turns out this is a French Liard coin, and based on the Crowned Bust it dates from 1655-1658


I found this while detecting this past weekend. This site has produced 5-6 KGI's a 1699 KW, 3 or so KG II's and many other period relics. This one I think is a Rosa American Half Penny, what do you all think?

It is the correct size, and appears to have a bust facing right. It is SUPER worn, almost slick. I cannot make anything out on the back.

Let me know what you all think.
