Found this in a forgotten woods. Have found many large cents, capped bust half done and seated silvers in these woods, along with countless buttons and other coins. But what is this? 1794

UPDATE. It's Italian silver!

Amazing to find that in the woods Ive found some old Chinese and british coins and a Jamestown expo coin Ya never know Good Job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We have had numerous Italian neighbors in NYC.
I guess you can find some old Italian Silver in The Bronx, but not that old. Most of the earliest settlers were English or Dutch.
Congratulations
