Spence Moderator United States 34396 Posts	Posted 09/03/2022 3:24 pm @fish, yes please always post the weight and diameter of pieces you'd like us to identify. I will say that this looks a lot like the undated colonial cents (of 1783) that feature Washington in military garb on both sides. I'd start there.
