1695-1701 William III Halfpenny (thought it was a KG)

[93vector]

Found this one today...I know it is a KG, but to my eyes it doesn't look like the usual GEORGIUS on the left of the bust.....any thoughts??
As you can see, not much left to the obverse unfortunately.

That's a KG, but try to avoid crashing someone else's post. If you have questions, post it on your own in "What's it".

Great William 3rd. Perhaps a type 1 or two. The Georges are common enough on our side of the pond, but the earlier coppers are tough finds. Congrats!
