I need some help figuring out what this is! It is only about the size of half of a dime. I have hit this field once before and found a toasted Large Cent. Any help would be appreciated.


Thanks,

Ivan

Looks like a 1 Reale thats been clipped to make a half Reale. Nice find!
 

That would be cool if it is! Still trying to match it up to a Reale but have not seen the match up yet.
