Hey T-netters, feels good to be able to post something for a change! LONG COLD WINTER!!! Well first off I have to say I luv my new T2, the 5" coil is wicked and can't wait to try the new 10"x5" coil. Went to a few of my old spots and found they are still givin sum keepers. The 1816 LC is my oldest coin to date and it has a rotated reverse to about the 10:00 position. Is that common on these? The GAR pin I thgt was sweet, it reads Cincinnati, sept. 1898- 32 Nat Encampt. G.A.R. !!! The glass piece I would like sum info on, I think I've seen it before. It has 1859 and what looks like the trunk of a tree on it made out of olive green glass. Look at the broken tag in the group shot, it WAS whole when I found it, left it in my pants and my wife doesn't check pockets when doin the wash.. MY BAD!! It reads Dog Tag 1882 on the back and B.W. Smith co. out of Lafayette, IN. Not real sure what exactly it was meant to be thg. The silvers came from the new site where I got the fob a few weeks back. I used my 11" coil the first time and the 5" coil this time and boy was I shocked what I had missed. The 1916 merc had my heart pumpin for a min till I seen NO d!!! The 1898 barber def got sum use before it was lost and the 05 injun has that beautiful green patina that we all luv!! The wheats are 13 and 17.. THANX for lookin and HH everyone!!!!!

Great finds! Thanks for sharing...
 
Anybody know anything on Large cent rotated dies??
 
I find it hard to believe that no one knows anything about the LC.. I've never seen one posted with a rotated die, not to say it doesn't happen.
 
WOW,,, GREAT FINDS

That is very interesting to have the reverse not exactly opposite the obverse. Not sure how rare it is but you should reach out to Hogge or Don in SJ as they are both very knowledgeable on Large Cents.
