Coincides with year prior to American Revolution. 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 due to 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.
