Can you see anything on that coin, looks like toast to me, after sandy I got my first colonial copper 1786, with a shield on one side and looks like yours on the other, I didn't post it because it's toast.

Super!

I can see the 1694 on the bottom! Can you get pics of the back and maybe some more of the front. Try taking it on a red or blue background. Sometimes that helps.

Good one. I've dug many George coppers, a few William, but not a W & M... at least one that was identifiable.

All I can see on the front is the back of his hair and a V and faintly the very top of there two heads , its about the same size as a King George but maybe a touch thinner. but its in real bad condition but at least I can see the date so im real happy.

Well if you got the date be gratefull of that, I have only ever had the one, and that was in very bad shape, the two just visible...but no date. Good find for over there, and here.

You'd be very hard pressed to find another 1694 copper the same size that's not a William & Mary Halfpenny which is why I have no problem accepting the ID.
