1810 Over 1809 Large cent

[Fullstock]

Decided on a last minute hunt at an old house site I’ve hunted many times, but it was windy and very cold so I’d already decided this would be a short hunt. About 5 minutes in I get a nice high tone on my Deus II and dig it and this little beauty popped out. It’s a good thing I found her early in the hunt because 10 minutes later I had to quit because of the cold. The coin is in nice shape for having been in the ground so long, I wish they all came out like this.

Very nice deyail on your LC. The cold weather certainly makes detecting less enjoyable...especially when you can't feel your hands after a while. Congrats on a very nice find.

Thank you and yes, it was really cold, especially with the wind.

Now that it has been pointed out, I can see the 09 lurking behind the 10. Never knew that existed. Great find!

What you can see the best is the 0 behind the 1
