    Send a PM to Lord M., but it kinda looks like a farthing.
    It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

    Are you sure that is a coin? If it is, it's the widest rim I've ever seen on one.

  • That's a Sacagawea dug up 50 years in the future and somehow mysteriously transported back to the present. Cool find!

    Looks like a very worn 1797 British cartwheel penny. See link for a look at a well preserved specimen.

    It's a very well worn and beat-up 1797 British penny. I've never seen a worse one. image

    It might be the poorest known that can be identified. image
    Retired dealer and avid collector of U.S. type coins, 19th century presidential campaign medalets and selected medals. In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible. I am also collecting at least one coin for each Roman emperor from Julius Caesar to ... ?
  • Yes, it looks like a Great Britain large penny circa early 1800's and before. About the size of a silver dollar and twice as think. Copper. This piece is heavily worn. The Obverse, lower coin, has the bust of the King of England, while the reverse, first image, has Britannia seated with shield.

  • Looks more like something we used to place behind those screw in fuses, in the fuse panel! What ever it is, It don't look as good as it used to. Bet if you are a good writer, you can get a couple hundred bucks for it on Ebay...LOL

  • If it is silver dollar sized then it's a two pence, Half dollar sized then it's a penny. And it is 1797, only year for the type.
