    Or more specifically, it's a modern copy of a Widow's Mite (a small bronze coin of ancient Judaea that is mentioned in the Bible by Jesus in a parable). The original coins are common, but there are also modern copies like this one. Post over in the Ancients section for a second (and third, fourth...) opinion.

    7 to 10 feet?! Were you digging to build a foundation?

    Maybe your buddy threw it in the dirt while you were digging to mess with you???
