British Colonial Silver!

[The Rebel]

Got out for a bit this am to a site I've hit in the past as it's a park & hunt site that has produced Large Cents, Barbers, Indians & Colonial Coppers.

Was swinging close to a stone wall when I got the hit and it was deep had to be about 6" or more, rang up I think in the 60's but when out of the hole was 75-76.

It's about 15/16 to 1" in diameter, so I believe it's a King William III or King George III but need the experts help.

I'm so stoked to have found it as I never in a million years would I have expected to fine one of these.

Also got an 1899 Barber Dime & a button.

HH!!

William III shilling for sure. 1695 -1701 would be the date. They made a pile of these, I have found 2 in Nova Scotia recently.
Nice Find!

That coin certainly got its share of "circulation" by the look of it. Congrats, always a thrill to find colonial silver in ANY condition!
