    From what I can see Jim, it looks like a Draped Bust half cent.. Do you have any measurement or another photo with a coin for size ?? I sure wish you would post bigger pictures. That sure is a sweet find

    The top, little picture is definitely a Draped Bust coin. If it's a Half Cent, they go from 1800 - 1808. If it's a Large Cent it goes from 1796 -1807.
