the house is a very early 1800's home that the original owner bartered with the local indians to build.

Very cool find mate. Congrats on your first Large Cent. I find them very elusive in my parts. Only have two myself after nearly nine years of hunting. Keep us posted how that Nokta Impact is working for ya'. Seems to be a very nice machine. :icon_thumleft:

Very nice. I think the nearest I will come to one of those here in Oregon, is what I see on T-Net.

Congrats on your first Large Cent. I like the looks of that house. I think I would hunt that yard 4 or 5 times before I gave up on it. That place just looks like a hot spot.

Congratulations on finding your first large cent! Looks like you had to do some serious digging to get that one out of the ground.
