Cool an 1816 that's over 200 years old! I like it because it looks antiquish and could have been held by some of the people who founded America. It was sold to me as 1815 or 16 but the price was right 15.60 which I get it it sounds expensive but some day they will all be expensive and this one I like it enough to never want to sell it. I think the damage makes it look like a 1815 slanted five but either way it's Slick! Thanks for your input.

Chances of 1815 are slim to none. As much as I see the 5, I don't see a 25 or 35 from these pics. So I'm going with 1816 as well.
