Hey Everyone!

Bought this on a whim and was hoping for some help identifying. It's very thin and was told it was silver.

Does anyone recognize? I appreciate any help!

That is a very nice silver penny @jec. Well done! As the flan has some cracking, you should protect it in a capsule or 2x2.

You ended up with a Cnut on a "whim"? I take it the seller did not know what this was which leads me to ask if I may, how much you got this for?

Seller did not know what it was. I paid $30 for this, thought it looked neat.
