Yay! It's my third large cent this year (and ever!). Found it right by a power pole in the front yard of a 1820s -ish house on a busy road. It was pretty deep and the signal was not that strong - I almost gave up - but I gave it one more scoop and there she was 
I don't think I made that scratch because she was really caked with dirt when I found her. I didn't even try to scrape off the dirt to see the date. I just wrapped her up brought her home and gave her a gentle cleaning.
In my 1.5 hour hunt there I also found a 1905 Indian cent, 1914 wheat, 1920 wheat, 1946 wheat $.08 in clad and part of some sort of toy gun.
Happy dance for me today!

nice lookin coin.
