[Charles (Upstate NY)]

I found this Monday night hunting the old park. The heat was sweltering but this find made it worth the effort.

There have been *way* too many large cents on here this week.

SHAME on you all for teasing me like that.

Sweet find Charles.

Cool find. 8) Not too bad a shape I suppose. Washington Park? You been doing much detecting there lately? Seems like any part of that park has the potential for a big find even after all the hunting that has been done there. Anyway, thanks for posting. Wish I could find something that old.

Yep good old Washington Park just keeps giving them up though at a bit slower pace these days.

Hey Charles.......Nice job on the draped bust large cent! it has been hot here also in this part of the state! But finding the colonial coins makes the hunt that much easier! Seeker
