I found this coin in one of my old penny jars and would appreciate any help with it.

This will help determine wether it is a blank planchet or a slug.

The top photo shows a rounded edge & the 2nd photo looks like a type 2 blank planchet ?

Weight and diameter may help, IDK, may even be a blank token...

Would also like to view a photo of the edge if possible.

looks like my type 2 that I have. but to be sure like others said weight and diameter would help, or size comparison to other coins if you dont have a scale.

Is it the same size and weight as a cent? The upset doesn't show on the reverse. So I'm thinking it is a blank. (front rounded by the blanking process, reverse show no rim)

It is the size of a nickel and the weight feels about the same. Don't have scale. Sorry
