Colonial Copper - Can Anyone Identify it?

[bookfisher]

I found this Colonial Copper in the woods on Tuesday. Though it's pretty corroded, the portrait is visible. I was hoping somebody can identify it. It's the same size as a quarter, but much thinner. Thanks.

It is good to see you back, Book! I haven't seen a post from you in a long time. You came back in style, too!

I love the 1680s copper! Long Island's history is up there with the best!

Thanks Kyle and Kirk. With this past winter being brutally cold I was hardly out at all, and with the difficulty of finding places to hunt here in Western Suffolk County means less finds for me. Though I did find an 1807 Draped Bust Large Cent where I found the Charles II about two weeks earlier.
