Need some coin ID help....

Probably an easy one, for you "older" coin hunters...(the coin, not the person ::grin:)

37602 37603

This is from an early 1800 site that had other coins from 1829-1859.

Face is looking right in pic 1. Back looks like the person is leaning over a bit more than any coins I have tried matching it to?

Appreciate your thoughts.
