Dug this today a 5" in a old spot. It is fairly big and thick. It has no markings on the front or back. Any idea of age?

Thicker tombac. Would guess very early 1800s.

where there are tombacs, there are coins!

I did get two early tokens at the same site before. Looking for silver. Haha

It would be difficult to age this without markings.
