Found this one in the front lawn of an old doctor's office that is now a protected historical site in Western Massachusetts. Any idea if there's a way to pin down a date and type of this Large Cent? Definitely one of my favorites being so unique. Also, my guess is that they cut it for change? or "poor man's screwdriver"?

Here is a link to the post I put up a while ago when I found it

It looks like it is a Coronet Head Large Cent, so 1816-1839. I don't know enough about the type to know if a specific date can be determined from what remains.
