A possible silver plated copper alloy contemporary copy of a hammered silver coin dating from the Post Medieval period: a halfcrown of Charles II (AD 1660-1685) struck between 1660 and 1662. The surface layer of silver is flaking; though the core of the coin is not definitely copper alloy, this is a possibility. It has a crown mintmark; mark of value XXX behind bust, and inner circles. See North number 2761. It is 33.8mm in diameter and 1.7mm thick, and weighs 12.19g.

A worn silver plated copper alloy half crown of Charles II (AD 1660-1685), a contemporary copy of a coin issued between AD 1660-1662 (hammered coinage). Even as a copy the coin is small for a halfcrown (at 32mm diameter rather than c. 34mm), however it is the right size of a milled halfcrown, issued after 1662. The features on the coin suggest that this is copying the earlier halfcrown (see Spink 2008 no. 3313 and 3321). c.f. North N2761.
