I found this coin today. The context of the find is that it was found in a field, ~10 inches deep, which has been tilled probably from colonial times. As you can see the coin is toast. It is copper and its diameter (20.5mm) is larger than a small cent (19mm). It appears to be about the same thickness of a dime. Its weight is 2.8 grams. I suspect that it's from the Old World. I am hesitant to do the peroxide treatment because I might lose everything. I know that's not a whole lot to go on but any help would be really appreciated.
