Draped Bust Large Cent

[sscindercoop]

Found the Lc a month ago and didn't even know it was a coin because it was so thin. I found an 1859 Canadian Lc a couple weeks ago and after seeing how thin it was i decided to clean the thin green disk to see if it was also a Canadian Lc. Well much to my surprise it turned out to be a Draped Bust I cant make out the date but it looks like 17??. I wish it was in better shape but I guess I cant complain. Thanks for looking and HH.

That baby sure is wore out Too bad it wasn't it better shape. However, it still qualifies as a draped bust coin

It looks like it may have been in a fire. It makes your find even more special.

A old coin in that shape is always disappointing...
