Draped Bust Large Cent

[crossfire631]

Yesterday returned to a site that has been surprisingly very good considering I am almost certain has been searched in the past. Last week I found a 1850 Large Cent and expanded out from there to see what else could be around. After digging a lot of 1960-1970 era Lincoln cents I found my first Draped Bust Large Cent! I couldn’t believe it as I almost didn’t dig it thinking it was another Lincoln penny. Unfortunately it’s pretty worn and can’t make out a date but regardless this is now my fourth Large Cent this year and my oldest coin I’ve ever found! Old silver coin has still been elusive this year. Thanks for looking.

Congrats on the large cent. Just remember worn, slick, no date they all count.
