So I was at that 1704 house today installing the wireless, camera and such...
I started in the dirt basement and within 5 minutes... I had this coin pop out...
With a little help from the Coinhunting.net guys.. the following was posted...
I definitely see the 16! above the image on the left...
I think it is more likely a 1692-1694 William and Mary Halfpence. William and Mary ascended to the English throne in 1688 but it was not until the end of 1691 that they had complete control of Ireland.
In 1692 they resumed a copper regal coinage of halfpennies very similar to the style of the previous coppers of Charles II and James II.
These copper halfpennies were issued for three years and are dated 1692, 1693 and 1694.
