I was at a Pittsburgh park today and hit some old areas of the park from the 1800's. I dug some clad, a 22 cal bullet, a silver button, and then... what I think could be... a large cent!
I gently cleaned it up when I got home. When it is wet, you can barely make out the definition on it, and it looks like it has the markings of a large cent. When it's dry, it's much more difficult. Know what I mean on those tough coins? I have it soaking right now in some light oil to hopefully loosen up some of the crud still on it.
 
Definitely looks like a large cent to me. Possibly King George, they were all very thin. I found plenty of King Georges with almost all the detail gone. The button is a nice find.
