Much easier if you say what you think and see if there is agreement, as I think most who ID them on here don't recognize them well enough to go right to the section, so it takes a lot of time.... time that is not worth spending when you already did the work. The coin is rough so hopefully there is not others that are extremely close.
Ok , I believe it is very close to the 1788 Miller 16.7-P
thats just it , its a rare variety so there isn't many examples out there to see Patch.
So how did you come to that conclusion? I seen a thread on one here from a while back but no reverse pic. I think it's going to be tough to confirm an ID, but I guess it comes down to whether the subtle differences are visible or not.
It does look similar, but I don't think that is it. The 16.7 obverse has a much narrower "A".
it looks close to the one in the book i have Patch .
can you point me to another variety I.cutler ??
I posted a couple more pictures of the coin , as you can clearly see its a 1788 type . hope this helps some .

It does seem very close but I can't get there. I don't think we're done yet however, if you want to do the work, and it being 1788 it would not be too bad. Even if we can not confirm a match, you can still confirm it by systematically eliminating every other 1788, and that probably would not take long because over 90% would likely have clear differences. Then once you have your short list, compare those to 16.7-P and if you can clearly eliminate each one you have your answer. If you get stuck and can't, then it's going to be inconclusive and really nowhere to go. So I do think it is still possible to ID it, or at least feel a high degree of confidence you have it right.
