Description: 1774 King George II Authentic Copper Pre-Revolutionary War Era, “Love Token” Intentionally Bent & Better Date Halfpenny, Colonial USA, Nice clear portrait. Collectible Era Coinage of the Pre-Revolutionary War Era! This represents a part of Colonial Coinage used here in America, and Great Britain this Hibernia or Irish coin was due to the shortage of copper and general scarcity during the Revolutionary War and population increases throughout the Colonies and the British Isles. Limited coins were produced from 1769-1775 (and then none until 1805-1807 none until his death in 1820) this led to creating of Non-Regal coins both with George III's likeness as well as Conder or Provincial Tokens also used here in the United States. Scarcity of early coinage in America where denominations were used primarily from Great Britain but other colonizing nations as well, the value was in the material either copper or silver, so almost any country's currency would pass hands.
