I went for a two hour hunt this morning to the cornfield I found the spur in, I found a pipe wrench and a tiny flat button that has a "Best Quality" backmark. After my afternoon nap I drove down the street to the "farm that nothing can be found" I forgot my phone when I went out on my second one hour hunt. (I hate when I get a good find and forgot my camera) and found another tiny flat button with a "ONU" on the backmark? ONU is a new one to me, I looked with the loop, it's the only marks I could see on front or back. Shortly after I had a nice signal and about five inches down this beauty popped out.

She has a partial hole drilled into her, not making it out of the reverse. Maybe they lost it trying to drill it?

Enjoy the pix

Awesome large cent, congratulations.

Very Cool

Congrats on the LC and button Brad. :occasion14: I'm about due to uncover another LC soon. fingers crossed.

Nice LC. I dug an 1853 last week that had the same partial hole in it. Maybe the drills weren't so good back then and they just got tired and gave up!

Great coin! Congratulations
