So, I know now how hard it is when You "See" something on a coin and then take a picture of it and it just doesnt look the same.

Anyway,

Went out hunting this past weekend and found this coin/token/round thingy and figured it might be something, but nothing I have seen before.

I have been cleaning it (soaking in oil) since the day I found it. I swear I keep seeing things on it, but you know how that goes.

So first thought was it may be a smoothed Large Cent. Its the same size and a tad under its weight.

I also can sorta see a Bust on it and what looks like a headband and hair. The one thing I know for sure is on there is either part of a "3" or an "8"

It just seems like the bust is a little different than the LC

I swear I haven't started drinking yet haha. Sorry for the redundant pics

Do you guys see what I see?

yea, thats pretty much what I was thinking. Just wasnt sure if something might have stuck out. I typically dont find coins ( if thats what it is) this worn and crusted.


in my head I keep seeing something lol

this was the closet I could come, but doubtful

thanks anyways

In the second picture I see the edge of a wreath to the bottom left and an "O" a little to the left of center which is where the word ONE would be. I'm thinking Large Cent!

Looking closer, the "O" I see maybe a little to far to the left ... Hmmmm. Does anyone else see what I see?

Is it thick like a large cent or is it thinner? King George II or similar type coin? Anyone can find pictures in corrosion, so maybe not...
