I found this 3 or 4 years ago it's some kind of colonial copper. Someone stabbed the tip of a dagger into the center of it. It is the exact size and thickness of a Connecticut copper. And the other side is totally smooth. Any guesses would be appreciated. It's been bugging me for years now. 20171005_014927.jpg

If you rotate your coin 90 degrees clockwise then below is what we're looking at. Follow her foot, up to her knee, and you'll see that thing she's holding. However, someone who actually knows coins has to match up the right version, paying attention to the knee position (which apparently varies) as well the lettering visible and it's relative position to her knee.

Good job! I knew there was room for improvement to my answer. Good eye finding one with that star that mine lacked.
