  This one is just shy of 440 years old but still a nice big ol piece of copper.
  1575 Papal Medal of Pope Gregory XIII.
  This is an original piece from 1575 and not a re-strike.
  It is made of copper and measures 32mm (just smaller than a silver dollar, but about twice as thick).
  
  

  Some coins are just plain "Interesting"

  Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

  Wow - some beautiful coins in this thread!!! I especially like the Mass. half cent!
  
  Here is my only one that is over 200 years old, though it's not quite a nice as the one just above... I posted this image a few months ago and I'm hoping to add a chain cent to go with it soon.
