Even if it not a strawberry leaf, it still dates pre 1808 if she is facing right.

It's gotta be a Draped Bust cent, minted from 1796 to 1807. It has little value in this grade although it is a nice conversation piece. If you are interested in having a readable example of this type you can find one for $50 or less, depending on how much damage and/or corrosion you are willing to tolerate. Personally, I'd donate this coin to a young collector and hunt down a better one for my collection.
