Okay... I'm trying to stay calm here. But I think I found a SUUUUUPER rare 1803 large cent. Now, there were over 3M of these made, but the super rare part is if the 1803 on the front is LARGE and the 1/100 on the back is small.
I think that's what I found.
If you look at pix, the 1 and 3 almost touch the bottom of the bust figure on front and the line that divides the 1 over the 100 appears to be lower & sorta in the "crook" of the ribbon's elbow like in the "small" pic.
Anyone?
I'm so excited! It's my first non-clad coin!
Here are some better shots after it sat in plain water in my ultrasonic jewelry cleaner for an hour.
