Thought I would show you all my oldest US Cent that I have ever dug. Last year I popped out a US 1796 LC. I dug this 1794 in another field using my AT Pro. Sure wish these LC came out of the ground in better shape. Anyway. Have a nice day !

Well you seemed to have cleaned it just right, and stopped cleaning at just the right time. Congrats on the find and preservation.

Cheers
