Hi there, I have what I believe to be an Irish halfpenny in front of me, however I cannot find another from this year (1794) with this design, only 1795. Any help would be appreciated 

 

I think this is your coin: N#363681

 

Can you make a closeup picture of the date? Your coin is quite worn, especially at the date. If I squint, I think yours is from 1795 too.

close up of the date. coin is worn in some areas, but most of it is readable 

Thank you, it's clearly 1794. Can you open a modification reqest on the coin page and add this year?

Not entirely sure how to do so, first time on this website, but attempted it nonetheless. Any idea what, if anything, this could be worth?

I'm not sure about the price but I found a list of Conder Tokens on Ucoin: https://en.ucoin.net/catalog/?country=united_kingdom&period=1794

Some of them have values, usually between 5-30$. I guess that yours is in that ballpark too.

That being said, there are ones on ebay with a 100-300$ price range, but those are in pretty much perfect condition: https://www.pcgs.com/coinfacts/category/tokens/conder-tokens/dublin-1600-date/141361

 

 

Try to search for Conder Tokens, which is apparently a family of late 18th century privately minted UK pennies: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conder_token

It’s an Irish condor token

can’t see any similar to mine, apart from the 1795 one originally mentioned. 

The 1794 version of this token is listed in Withers as 18th century Ireland, Dublin #323, while the 1795 version is listed as #324-325 (pages 382-383).

Thanks a lot for all your help!
