1787 Fugio Cent

[gunner45]

Good morning all, over the weekend I was able to acquire this 1787 Fugio cent.
I was hoping to search the minds on the forum to see if I could get some info on the coin.
It appears to have club rounded rays but I can't say for sure.
The weight of the coin is 9.9 grams and the diameter is 26.84mm
Thanks and any help would greatly be appreciated

A bit rough, but I think it is one of the pointed ray varieties. Will try to spend more time with it when I get the chance if someone doesn't get to it first.

I definitely think it is pointed rays, and I think it is "States United at Sides of Circle, Cinquefoils on Label."
