I can't help you ID any of them finds, there aren't enough pictures lol The King George III is an Irish Hibernia. It should say HIBERNIA above the harp and below it should be a date straight across, probably very early 1800's (like 1805ish) If the date is split on either side of the harp, then it's older, like 1770's. Nice Indian head. Lots of targets there. What's wrong with them previous detectorists? lol

thanks for the id G! thumbsup01 i know i guess i get a tad carried away with pics :cheesysmile:
i don't know if these sites were hit that hard.they sure left alot if they were hit :drool:

I edited my post to include the earlier dates on that Hibernia. It's tough to see the date from the pictures. Yours looks like the earlier dates. And that 1869 Indian has one of the biggest cuds I have ever seen on the back side. Man that die must have been damaged lol I bet they retired that die soon after. Nice error coin.

Played with the photo of the Hibernia a tad and I would lean towards a 1782 for the date. Most 1781 and 1782 found are counterfeits, if you ever get a chance, weigh it. If regal should be 140 grains or approx 9 grams, maybe a tad less for wear.

thanks don for looking at this coin.it weighs 6.6 grams.
