found a old large cent hard to read no date but like 1803 i found last year same type of profile and markings only seems thinner and lighter and feels rougher no nice green patina

I'd be on Cloud nine with a draped bust in any condition (I'm still looking for my first draped). We don't see old coppers with that coloration around here. All of mine have had a green patina. Looks like you might be able to squeeze out a little more detail with cleaning. Congrats!
