Georgian Copper Coin Collection – George III Pennies & Halfpennies (1797–1799). Interesting mixed collection of five original Georgian copper coins dating from the late 18th century reign of King George III. The group includes larger early copper issues alongside classic Britannia reverses and laureate portraits associated with Britain during the Napoleonic Wars period. Visible dates include 1797 and 1799. These coins circulated during one of the most important periods in British history — the era of Admiral Nelson, the Battle of Trafalgar and the wars against Revolutionary and Napoleonic France. A good honest collector’s starter group with original aged surfaces and strong historical character.
