Hi all,
I usually post pics with my posts, but I have to wait until my gf gets home with the camera to do that. In the meantime, I thought if I could describe waht I'm seeing, the coin buffs on this site could help me out. The obverse is completely torched, can't make out one detail.
Diameter and width exact same as a US lincoln cent.
Reverse has a wreath like an Indian head though not exact
In the wreath, a large numeral '1' over the date '1885'.
The edge of the coin is not reeded that I can tell.
From what I can tel it is copper. Hits a 61 on DFX.
Found in Pennsylvania.
UPDATE! - Ha, I answered my own question before ever getting a response. Sorry for wasting your time! I'll add a pic when I get a chance. Here is the link I found:

Any help? or do I need the pic?
Thanks!
