I got this 1827 Large Cent in nice condition today in a section of woods not too far from the old woods, where I found the 1787 Massachusetts Large Cent on July 3rd. I parked my car, walked about 75 yards down a trail, looked towards the left at the top of a small incline, and said to myself, start up there. I turned on my machine at the bottom of the incline and started swinging the coil as I made my way up the short hill. I swear to God, the first hole I dug, just about right at the top of the hill, I came up with the Large Cent. I spent another two hours hunting after I found the Large Cent and only came up with two 19th century flat buttons. Talk about metal detecting radar, it was right on today. The first two pictures show the Large Cent after I cleaned it in the field and the last two after I cleaned it at home.
