✅ SOLVED King George?

[WHADIFIND]

A friend told me he was convinced that's what this coin is but I cannot tell. My eyes see no detail at all!
Maybe a bit of a broad ridge around the edge?

Here's a few pics.




Maybe somebody can tell by the size/weight?
Looks like 35mm to me and it weighs 23.41g a rather hefty coin! No wonder it fell out!

Thanks!

Yes, probably a George III 1797 Cartwheel penny. If the size is night it almost certainly is. (and I think that is right)

Thanks I.P. I had considered that one for the diameter but I understood the weight to be better than 28 grams. Think this could have dieted that well over the years?

Yes Cartwheel. looks like the same condition as I usually find them. But it's usually a great sign for a site.

Thanks again I.P. that would be close 'nuff for govt work. (and me )

I was looking very carefully under natural light and I think I see a 7. What do you think?




7 at the bottom

flipped coin horizontally.

Good eyes I.P. You think it could lose that much weight though?

 

[Iron Patch]

Not real sure, but these were not counterfeited near as much so I would lean that it did lose the weight. There's not many coppers that have a similar rim... some from the Isle of Man, but I can't think of any others. If the diameter is right that's what you got.

Looks like a British Cartwheel Penny to me. Nice find. I sure would go over that site slow and dig every signal. Best of luck.
