And probably a concrete grinder too. The back story of that coin would be more exciting than having it. Remember all these coins started life at least as MS coins and now look at them. A possible bestseller - From the Mint state to the Basal state - the 1888 V nickel speaks "The 1910s were the worst and then the Hobos in the 30s - sheeesh!"

This is about as crap-tastic as it gets for me: 1866 2 cents, found while swimming in Flathead Lake.   Jasper

1807 makes sense, it has the grove on the edge to match the half penny, same diameter and approximate wt.

I'm pretty sure that this is the obverse of a 1797 Great Britain Penny.
