The fact that the coin shows George III's name and portrait but the date 1741 is the definitive characteristic of an evasion piece:
Evasion of Law: The coin was deliberately minted with an anachronistic date to avoid being an exact counterfeit of any official coin currently in circulation. This was a legal loophole used by private mints.
Historical Context: These tokens were widely circulated during the American colonial period and post-Revolutionary era when official British small change was scarce.
