    Yep, it's the remains of a French Second Empire copper coin. Denomination depends on size; 1, 2, 5 and 10 centimes were all made (though 5 and 10 are the most commonly found).

    There's not much left of the eagle on the other side. Here's what they're supposed to look like.

    Apparently I have been awarded one DPOTD. B)
