My oldest coin to date! Not in terrible shape either. Found on an old town common that is now overlooked. Thought I would try it out and found this and a 1912 barber dime. Pretty good! Thanks for looking! ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1471821426.015304.jpg ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1471821439.307313.jpg

That's in pretty good shape. The one and only one I have is 1813 and is in much worse shape than that took me a long time to even be able to see the date. You got full Liberty there congrats

Nice finds! Would like to see more details of the 1809, if possible. Wetting the coin before taking a pic might make the details 'pop'.
