It is pretty thin it weighs 6 grams. Maybe a 1787 Copper, Draped Bust facing left I can see the 3 stars on the back after the word INDE. But i'm not really sure. Thanks in advance for any help.

I don't know anything about them but I just did some googling - possibly it might be a Connecticut Copper?

Thanks timekiller I my self am very far from being a pro and I greatly appreciate the help. On the coin I have on the reverse there is 3 stars on the left after the word INDE. The only way I can tell the size of the coin is with my measuring tape and it measures about 1 1/16 in so 27.1 mm makes sense. :icon_thumleft:
