Great find! I found my first one recently but I'm not able to see the date. Any suggestions on how to clean it?

This is my 4th and oldest. Normally it’s not caked. I started on the reverse with a toothpick then was able to know where to look for the date. I used toothpicks and a lot of patience

My father who lived in the house of the previous owner, a coin collector, found an 1865 Indian head penny… how did they have that?

VERY nice find For some reason the fact that it s an even 1800 makes it a little more special

Nice cleaning job. Have you applied a light coat of renaissance wax with a gentle rub?

It's all preference, but I think it brings out more details and makes old coppers look better.

No, I will have to look into that. Thank you.
