British, George III evasion/contemporary counterfeit halfpenny 1774, double-struck error.
A wonderfully messy rotated double-strike, possibly a foolish attempt to correct an earlier off-centre strike.
VF or better, reverse slightly stained.
Such counterfeits commonly circulated in the colonial and early independent US.
