Coin ID assistance please. Found yesterday.

I found this coin yesterday at a homesite thats been a homesite since the early 1700s. It was a solid 77/78 on my mxt. It pinpointed at 3 inches but when i dug it, it was more like 6. Its bigger then a large cent at 30mm and weighs 9.2 grams. I know ive seen this coin somewhere before. Looks like theres a bust facing right on the front with a thin neck. On the back it appears to be similar to britania but the shield is way to far off her bum. Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

I can't vouch for the year, but I like the ID.

Thanks for the link Don,
That does look like the coin. I think ill go at it some more with the bronze wool and try to see if a date comes through. This thing was unidentifiable and slick before i gave her a good bronze wooling this morning. Couldnt see a bust or the obverse.

There is no 1804 only 1806 or 1807.

I threw the date as an odd guess, I was off by 2 or 3 years. The left facing Britannia gave it away. IDing things usually is just an educated guess. I wish I found it, the closest Ive come is a suspected counterfeit King George iii.
