Before I go scrubbing on this, could it possibly be a 1700's largie?
It is greener than green and REEDED!
It is 29-30 mm in diameter

I don't know how you have that much restraint! Go at it gently with a toothpick and report back.

This was the most green patina I have ever seen on a clad coin.
Plus the fact that I found two injuns with it, I thought for srue it would be older...
