Every now and then someone posts a "coins making cameos in major motion pictures" thread....and here is another one. In the 1975 Oscar-nominated classic, Barry Lyndon, there is a close shot of a 1770-75 British halfpenny (flipped to see who gets to shoot first in a duel). Yes other gold coins of the period are mentioned in that movie, but this is the only one that gets a close shot.

It does appear to be a Great Britain George III Half Penny of the type struck 1770 to 1775.
