Hi all,

I been trying to identify this item for a few days without success. It was found on an old farm field in NJ that has given up lots of large cents, reales and King George coins.

It's heavy for its size (5 grams) and it rings up a little lower than a penny would.

Any ideas or thoughts would really be appreciated!

Thanks,
Ken

Hey Ken is the other side featureless or does it have any noteworthy attributes ?

Hi Del, nothing really on other side. I gently brushed off the dirt and I don't see any details.

Brass ? or do you think its something else ? And can you post it with some to give a size reference ?

Hey Del, I don't think it's brass but that's just a guess. Here is a photo for sizing.
