I was lucky to find this lovely large cent on my last trip to Vermont. It came out of an area that was very dry, and it helped to keep it in good shape, thanks for looking, Rick.

Fantastic! My oldest LC is also a 1798. Similar in detail, mine is a brown beauty without the green patina.

Congrats!
 
Nice one! :thumbsup: I dug a 1795 about 5 years ago and I'm glad I did because I'm not too confident I'll find another.
 
Vermont soil is kind to copper ;D Your 1798 sure poped out pretty nice !

Sweet, my oldest LC is a 1797. Nice shape that one is in :wink:
 
She is a beauty :icon_thumleft: That is in great shape too.
 
I'd be ecstatic if I were to find such a beautiful coin. It was cleaned to perfection, and I just love the remaining green patina. Congratulations.
 
Great looking copper, love the look. :icon_thumright:
 
Any Draped bust is a good find!
