To make money by scaming people the coin collecting world today is dangerous.
Not the real deal an imitation of a error which in this case would be a straight clip.Still a decent old copper cent i would keep it for...
It also has a ridge ring a sign of die deterioration it won't be a cent anymore soon;).

What comes to mind to me is a Canadian cent the weight is within the range most likely not modern though if that heavy.
Looks like a blank planchet of some kind to me

Nice cent,not surprised they take it easy on these its pretty nice for being 200+ years old.
I agree but can we see pictures of the edge anyway op.
