    Shot in the dark...a half cent? Just not enough detail for me to make it out.

    My guess would be a draped bust 1/2 cent.

    I think it is an 1808 draped bust half cent. I am certain you can see the date better in hand though.

    When I blow up the picture it looks like an 1804 half cent to me.

    Looks like an 1800-1808 Half Cent. How would one go about removing the verdigris from this without damaging the coin?
