It is a 1984 penny which was never dipped in copper.found at a park in a hoard protected by cardboard with multiple plastic which was buried roughly 10 inches in the ground .i know it is not from weather and being buried because the rest of the change had nothing wrong with it no discoloring nothing., Which a collector offered me $130 for it. but i am holding off a little while to do more research on it.

what I can make out on the coin it is a 1813 trade and navigation one penny token i need to find out how to look up the value
 

Great coin finds... As far as the copper penny token, it's Canadian - I have seen them listed as 'Anglo-Canadian' such as it is here: http://www.abccoinsandtokens.com/W.1641.003.html. In absolutely mint condition it would have a value, but in dug condition very few copper coins retain much value. I would guess $5 tops. Regardless it's a fantastic piece for your collection of old coppers... Congrats!
 

Thank you
 

here's another find that I had found about 1 foot away from that 1813 one penny token
