River Find in NY

[Thebigd81]

Found in the river last week... Had a few long time respectable diggers id it saying the same thing but I want more opinions... ~24.6mm diameter, ~1.4mm thickness, weighs ~ 4.04g now I'm sure these are off some with it being so worn and holed

When magnified to 700%, you can make out a few letters, and possibly one number on it, but it looks like there was originally lots of detail. My guess is a a holed Civil War store card,

Hard to believe I'm asking this, but could you post the full-sized
images? If so, I'll re-process them to see if I can bring out any
additional details.

Hopefully that worked I'm not technically inclined

I'd be ok with that... Think I'm going to try electrolysis on it probably won't help but it for sure won't hurt it any

I'm guessing "Hard Times Token"

I'm thinking of trying electrolysis for the first time and see if it helps any... Not holding my breath but it won't hurt it any
