Need Some ID Help... Should be a challenge

[Avago]

Found this in a roll of CWR half dollars today. Exactly the same diameter as a half but super slick. Can anyone help ID? The other side (which looks to be the reverse) is smoothed of any detail.



Thanks in advance!

Not much to go on but resembles young head Victoria.

It is the remains of a Victorian Bunhead penny. (I have checked the size - exactly matches a half dollar.) In that condition sadly worth scrap metal only!

This is what it should look like:

Boy PaddyB, I don't know how you did it but you're certainly right! Thank you!

Being a part time coin dealer in the UK I get these all the time - often in a similar condition, so I can spot them a mile off!
