Very worn coin

Can anyone identify my coin? There is very little to go on?

Welcome @Seaworthy to the CU forums.

You’re not kidding! There isn’t much to go on. But there just might be enough. I have seen that bust before but cannot place it...

Please provide the following:

-measurement of diameter and thickness
-weight in grams
-pic of the edge

Also, please post your question in the World and Ancient forum for more eyes to help you.

Possibly an English 1806 or 1807 Penny of George III. The date would be below the portait

Thank you. The approximate details are 32mm across, 2mm depth, 1gram and photo shows picture of edge?

I think it is this - very familiar design. Often/usually found well worn.

That sure is a worn coin.

This appears to be a match, as @Oldhoopster mentioned:

That’s brilliant, thank you
