1802 Liberty bust large cent

[True_Metal]

Found it today doing sweeps by the horse barn at my GF's house. I must have walked over this sucker a thousand times before i finally had the time to detect the area. In the condition it's in probably is not worth much, but to be the first person to touch this coin in over 200 years more than makes up for it

Way to go man!!! I found an old hand made penny in a friends pasture. I gave it to him and he , unwisely made a pendant out of it! Well, easy come easy go. HH!!

Thanks fellas. I took some pics of it with my girlfriends digital camera but because of the corosion it just looks like a black circle with no detail, so it would be pointless to post a pic of it. I searched the rest of that imediate area and just came up with clad. I'm going to start on the backyard proper over the holiday and see if i can come up with some more oldies.
