I found a copper coin that says on one side 1/2 ounce of fine copper. It has a shield with an eagle and says The Patrick Mint. It also says made in the USA.on the other side it has a Jesus figure with a crown. He has Greek writing around the edges of the coin. I have looked online and I can't find anything out about it..Thank you in advance for the help.

The Patrick Mint was established in 1957 so it can be no older than that.

On the second page of the Patrick Mint catalog at http://www.patrickmint.com/website.pdf in the second row and second column there is a design like your 1st and 3rd pictures. If all else fails, contact the company for the ID and when it was minted.

Sidebar: The image on the left is a representation of a coin minted during the reign of the Byzantine emperor Justinian II. During his second reign (705-711) this portrait of Christ first time appeared on Byzantine coinage.
