Went out after work to a new spot next to a foundation. Pulled wheats, IHP, barbers, mercs, so I know the ground is old. Out came this small coin. Less than an inch it is almost completely toast. Took it home gave it a little love and think I see a right facing bust. The other side is what plages me it looks to have an H or something but can't really get a good picture. The thickness of the coin is uneven so it was made like a cob? Or hit with a hammer later in life? Hopefully one of you coin wizards can make heads or tails of it
