Hi folks. On my thread First Big Silver I posted this picture. To the right of the wheat pennies is an unknown coin. I need some help here. I have been trying the home made electrolisis to clean it. It seems to be the exact size as a nickel. But it seems to be made of either copper or bronze. I am beganing to see a small design running around the edge. I have never seen a large cent. Are they the same size as a nickel? Could this be a large cent? It is really crusted up.

:thinkingabout: Hi Cody. A large cent is just a tad larger then a Pokahontus dollar. Quite a bit larger then a Nickel. :groovy:

Thanks starman, it must be some type of token. I'll post a picture if I ever get it clean.
