Please help identify this copper half penny. It weighs 14.53 g, is 33mm in diameter.

Hello and welcome to Numista!

 

Maybe this:  N#149777

 

Edit:  reverse (right picture) seems to be different.

Yes, the reverse appears to have some sort of wreath on it, olive leaves on the left and shamrocks on the right. I’m very puzzled, can’t seem to find anything online.

Yep. I saw what looks like a wreath, too.

 Yes a different wreath left and right, but I see no shamrock. 

N#96415 

 That has a similar wreath, maybe. Yours though has bigger leaves. 

But on yours can not see what is in the middle of it, if anything. 

Also Britannia looks higher up, and can not see what the lettering is. 

 Still looking …

 Again with no readable lettering it is difficult. 

Here is a 1 Penny token > 

N#17936 

 and maybe there was also a ½ Penny version. 

Also, it does have shamrocks on the right wreath.

 Not sure if cropping and plain colouring helps >

 Actually, that may be it. 

The topic title says ½ Penny but the message says 33mm which 

is a 1 Penny size, with around 28mm being a ½ Penny size.

I believe you solved the mystery!!

Thankyou so much! All the coins from this site are ones I’ve not dug before, and all are late 1700’s-early 1800’s, so this fits in nice!

again, much appreciated!

 I made these last night …

That’s pretty cool! Wish I knew how to do that.

 I appreciate the effort, my friend!

 Thanks - it is made with a free download PhotoScape. 

I made those to see if anything might identify, but not sure.
