    Big Injun

    Got an IH, well it looks like an IH, it's on a copper planchett. Same diameter as a nickel but thinner. Doesn't look like it was hammered down, too symmetrical. Eh, hate finding these wierd ones, like the one-sided two-cent piece i got also.

    The back looks like a typical IH, wreathed. Thinking it might have been a wheatie that slipped into the nickel punch at the mint but didn't get the nickel stamping. No bezel nearby and it was under a sidewalk for who knows how many years in a matrix that was concurrent with it's probable age. I've found a couple buffs with bezels on them that were apparently keychains or fobs, but not any IH's.
