    A copper.

    United States: copper "Hard Times" token, C.D. Peacock Jewelers, Chicago, backdated "1837" (actually struck ca. 1902)

    Now, for a new theme, and echoing a neat feature on @Steve66's Russian coin, let's do coins with incuse lettering and/or dates.

    Liberia: proof copper cent, 1847

    Goats worked fine @lordmarcovan

    Actually male goats of all kinds are called Billies, females are Nannies, and babies are Kids.

    In the sheep family, intact males are called Rams, females are are called Ewes, and babies are called Lambs.
