Hi Nahabit !!
5 kopecks of Katherina dated 1764 is the best one - CONGRATS !!!!
I'm continuously trying to find one like Your's, with no luck.
I think that You should show the size of this coin at the forum.
The coin is really huge and heavy, I'd say - biggest one I've ever seen.
A dime looks like a bean next to it.
Just put it on a box of cigarettes, and then take a pic.
Or simply write the dimensions in Inches.
Pozdrawiam Matejko
CONGRATS again !!!!!!!!!

Boy was not a negative or what I was calling you, it was Boy=Wow or Boy=Gosh.
The coins in the states used to be made of quality copper and silver also, but the ground here has natural acidic qualities that over the course of 50~200 years causing corrosion in even the most quality of metals.
I would hazard a guess that the temperature of the ground there where you are is also a factor in the coins lasting so long in such good shape.
