Need Help,I think I found colonial coins at Flea Market

[creeper71]

I was bored today an thought I would go to a local flea market to waste sometime... I happen to see these 2 coins hiding in a case ... They was 7.00 for both with 20% off.. I figured I could spare that an bought them.. Can someone please Id an maybe give me a date for the one coin on the left?? also can someone give me aproxx grade for both coins? Thanks to all that reply.... Oh I forgot to add the weights the one on left weighs 6.1 grams one on right weighs 5.3 grams

It looks like it could be a "Regal" KGIII.

Looks to be a George 2nd, mid 1700's...very cool market find! Here's a 1750 I dug a while back....

Like Hank says the one on the left I believe to be a George II Halfpenny dated between 1740-1754 and the other you obviously know. The 1893 IMHO would grade about Very Good and the other Good. We use a different grading system from the US and roughly align with the British system of grading.

Good is defined as"Quite worn, but must still show the full outline of the design, even if only faintly".

They look almost deliberately smooth in the pics, might want to get a pro to check out the authenticity. Did get a half penny some time ago here in town.

Thanks Jarhead, hope everything is going better for ya son

Probably being picky by saying the 1890s coin is not in the colonial period

On the plus side the George copper is real & they look like that undug after 100 plus years of use

Nice finds, flea markets are great places to find some good stuff! I pick up alot at them myself!

nice snag on the colonial era coin --the queen vic coin while not colonial is fun too for a pre 1900 coin ( queen victoria coinage is cool to many folks --she died in 1901 .)

way to go on that great buy..
i saw a man at our local flea market ( simpsonville ) who had a granby copper for sale, i think he wanted around $5,000 for it and he also had a pine tree coin for sale for around $10,000..
he told me he bought a box of junk and they was in the box...

 

[creeper71]

I guess these 2 coins have no real value or different varieties?

I have found two of those half pennies like the 1893 one you have while I was searching half dollar rolls from the bank. Interestingly enough they came from machine rolls from Brinks, almost exact diameter as a half dollar
