Found this today in a curb strip in a very old part of town. It was down about 6 inches. It looks like it had been nailed up somewhere. A lot of the nail head is still on the front. I knocked what was left of the nail out of the hole. I can make out the number 10 and some sort of wave pattern around the edge on both sides. There is also what looks to be a leaf/flower or feathered star type pattern radiating from the center on the back. Can't seem to find anything on the net about it so I'm putting it out there for you sages to figure out. It's about the same size as a Kennedy Half. it's not as thick as a Kennedy Half, but has some weight to it. I'm almost certain it is copper. I scratched it on the back digging it up and although it doesn't show up well in the photo, it looks to be copper. I can find no writing on it at all. Thanks in advance.
After soaking it in Tabasco Sauce for a couple hours this is what has come out. On the back I found clockwise Clubs, Diamonds, Spades, Hearts. I'm sure this is copper and it may be an old Poker chip. Coolest find so far. Anyone seen one of these before?? Still can't find anything on the web about this. Couple more pics for you.
