Turban head eagle!

[plumbdigger]

I recently found a coin in a potato field near the ct river. It's copper and the front has the turban head bust facing right and on the back it has the eagle and shield. The coin is a hair smaller than a nickel. I've looked in books and online and can't seem to find anything like it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Don't have a good camera. It's identical to a late 1700s turban head eagle 10$ gold piece. It's roughly the size of a nickel I can see a 17?? Below the bust. It's worn like every other late 1700s early 1800s copper I find. I've been looking for a few days now and can't find anything, it's driving me crazy.

Glad I could help.

Hmm, well that's a weird coincidence - I have a friend named Andrew who also lives in Belchertown, MA.....
