Here is what I think might be a 1793 Half Cent facing Left.
It appears to be in PO condition.
Can anyone confirm this identification for me?

Thanks

If it's 22mm in diameter, this would be my guess but the head facing left was from 1793 not 1796. If it's 23.5 mm it would be the 'head facing right' version and this one falls into the 1796 date.

Thanks for the info mds308. I took another look at the actual coin under a different light and realised that I had it right the first time. The head is facing right and 28mm in size so it must be a 1796 Liberty Cap 1 cent. Thanks again.
