Another First For Me

[GoGoGopher]

Thursday Late Afternoon:
All my friends have found at least one, and since 2005, this is my first Large Cent...It is also my oldest coin to date... A 1817 13 Star Matron Head Cent. The nick in it was not from my diggers...She is a beauty for 200 years old!!!






HH,

That coin is in great shape, what a beauty !!!

The ground here in western PA is not that kind to coins.
