found a old large cent hard to read no date but like 1803 i found last year same type of profile and markings only seems thinner and lighter and feels rougher no nice green patina
very cool! nice draped bust! kinda stinks when they come out looking rough but,that's what you expect when cellar hole hunting.
some times ya win sometimes you don't.i dug my share of crappy coppers.least ya know basically what it is.worse when you have no clue.just a copper dissc
I'd be on Cloud nine with a draped bust in any condition (I'm still looking for my first draped). We don't see old coppers with that coloration around here. All of mine have had a green patina. Looks like you might be able to squeeze out a little more detail with cleaning. Congrats!
