Possible to date this draped bust cent?

Kind of a long shot I know, but was hoping there is a way to identify the date, or at least narrow it down, based on other features. I've seen it happen before, not sure if there is enough left on this coin though. I can kind of make out the top of the last date digit and it appears to be a rounded loop like a 2, 8, 9 or 0. Any help is greatly appreciated!

I rethink the rev detail holds hope of ID. The bow at bottom of wreath and the wood extensions. More to follow. Peace Roy

It is possible to date this one, but don't you think she is a little old for you?

I am not an old copper expert, so likely no help... especially since I really cannot make out an numbers at all....did you try different lighting? Cheers, RickO
I tried all sorts of things, but unfortunately all it did was increase the pareidolia effect

I can tell from the obverse that it is not a 1799, and from the reverse that it is not an 1804.
This tells then that it is not worth very much in it's present state, and I would move on.
But I'm sure some of the sharper guys can narrow it down even further for us.
