Doesn't look like any copper I've seen come out of the ground. Unless it's a trick of lighting...???
 
It is a Liberty Cap large cent! 1794-1796, congrats on a hard to find 1700's US large cent!

Another spot-on id
 
Have it graded! It would have to be the best of the worst!

I'm totally blown away by your ability to ID that "blob" of a coin. I'll remember your name. Gary
