Went back to the three cent site. I missed this one last time. (as well as 1 lead, and a piece of pewter spoon)

1806 or 07, 1P, I believe. Do you think it was recycled into a button, or used on a string for a kid to spin ? Holes are a bit far apart for a button.

Yep spacing looks right for a buzzer but who really knows. Probably more than a few possibilities.

BTW it's 1799. (Halfpenny)

I knew you would know, even as poor as it is. Thanks
(Not much difference in diameter between those two.)
Cool, makes the 7th coin from the 1700's this year.

Thats a nice find Rick :icon_thumleft:

Its makes the find more personal other than just a coin that was passed along..

I have found 3 button coins this year so far..
