Awesome....you are doing better than me. So far I have only found 3 but NONE of them have a readable date ??? ??? 8)
 
Congrats on your first L. C. :thumbsup: I like the holed coins myself. It makes them more personal in my mind. Someone had to put that hole there and we'll never know the reason why.
 
After 16 years, I got my FIRST dateless LC last week... It was overdue. Now I'll get dateless ones for the rest of 2008. :D

The second one is ALWAYS easier to find than the first, for certain.


Well done.

It feels good to get that first old large cent doesn't it? I've still only found one...I'm just happy to be on the board. Congrats on the stuff you've been pulling, good luck on future hunts!
