Larry Faulkner New Member United States 13 Posts	Posted 10/12/2021 3:29 pm I received this coin in a bulk lot of uncleaned coins. It is 14mm and weighs about .50grams. It has never been cleaned and is in raw condition.. Thank you. Report this Post to the Staff

Seeker55 Pillar of the Community United States 634 Posts	Posted 10/12/2021 7:33 pm Sorry I cannot help identify this interesting coin, but can say that it is not believable that a 14 mm coin weighs .50 grams. Please recheck the weight. Report this Post to the Staff
Larry Faulkner New Member United States 13 Posts	Posted 10/12/2021 11:38 pm The millimeters are correct. The weight is accurate to a couple of hundredths of a gram. It is tiny and about as thick as a matchbook. Report this Post to the Staff

Larry Faulkner New Member United States 13 Posts	Posted 10/13/2021 7:21 pm Thank you very much for the id information. I have had the coin for about 30 years. I did not clean it because I did not know what it was. Thanks again. Report this Post to the Staff
