Was back home this morning by 08:30 but was fortunate enough to sniff out a 1723 Hibernia halfpence in a short hunt. I've hit this site a few times in the past and never found any coinage. I initially thought it was a Rosa penny when I dug it but was happily surprised to see it was a Hibernia once I cleaned it at home. That one's been on my wish list for a while.

Thanks Gents.

Drew, looks like someone was drilling with a knife point.
