    I’d greatly appreciate help with an ID on this copper/zinc cash coin. Denomination? It doesn’t seem to match anything in my Krause manual.
    Diameter 50mm, weight 28.38g

    thanks,
    RM

    Any thoughts on this coin? It is from 1802-1820.

    I think you have a Vietnam war era charm or amulet made to look old and to be sold as a souvenir to service men (to bring home on their return to the states).They sold for a couple of dollars .They incorporated old coin legends and proverbs .I think there were numerous varieties.
