Found this very heavy little fella in Ft. Worth, TX today.
It measures 1.5" by 1".
Across the top it says "Old Ironsides."
Below it says USN.
Apparently, it is a souvenir made from original copper that was removed from the ship during a restoration. Waiting to hear back from the USS Constitution museum for possible more info.
It is amazing how heavy it is. It was a solid 40 on the Equinox. I thought it was going to be a silver dollar based on the sound and size of the signal. I'm happy it turned out to be something even better!
