Three LC's, two IH's, and crop of Wheats

That pretty house I posted yesterday, turns out, built in early 1800's. I hunted 5 hours, found a King George 1752, Coronet Cent 1833 and a mystery coin I think is a 1773 date. You look and see what ya think. I'll try and post the date side first then other side (i don't have any reference)
Also found my first 1863 IH cent along with a 1883 IH cent I'll post dates on the wheats later, I think I found seven of them?
Enjoy the pix

This threads about to take a wierd turn
 

Wasn't that Abbott and Costello? I forget, lol.
 

Wow incredible day!
 

Specifically in this picture... looks kind of like a chain... My eyes might be playing tricks on me though.... compare it to this. It would be on the side that said America. Don't quote me on this one....just speculating. :laughing7:

You know, this one and all the mystery coins, you can always see things that just are not there. This coin is driving me nuts and it is because I can see plain as day, "America" on it. It was funny because upside down it looked like a date, I was wondering why and what coin had such a big date. As far as I can research only two US coins that have that bigger letters and are 27 mm are a chain or a early coronet. One more clue is for a Large Cent it is a very thin coin. I have been comparing it with my other coppers. It is as thin as a King George (but it for sure has America on it) and my 1820 Coronet is just a hair thicker. If I hold it just right in the light after I line up the America on the back, then flip it over I swear I see a strawberry leaf where its supposed to be on the chain coin, ha. I was hoping someone would know how thick a chain cent coin was. I'm think what ever coin it is the edge is very worn and both sides the face is very smooth, so I think allot of weight could be gone, would make way more sense it being a Coronet, a 1820 weighs 10.89 and is 28-29 mm. 27 mm could easy make up difference in weight.

It was so funny because before you posted about thinking you seen chains, I thought I seen them too, haaaaa lol, Just for George and Abe, we have determined it is a 1793 strawberry chain!

But in real life I'm really thinking very worn Coronet.
 

WOW... what can I say. Congrats on a spectacular hunt. GL&HH.
