I had about 2 hours to kill this afternoon so I drove up to the copper mines and started swingin'
These are my finds including my FIRST Large Cent !!!! Looks like 1822. SCORE !!!! It is a little bent but I dont care.
I will be posting a couple of the other items in " what is it "

Thanks for looking, VPR

Congrats on your first Large Cent and of course now the second one will come much easier. :) Not sure about the date, my eyes are tired, but could it be a 1821? Always hard to tell from some photos.
