I found a large cent today. She is ugly and worn but she counts.

I have been helping a guy down the road from me learn this fun hobby of detecting. We went out today after work to an old one room school site that I have hit in the past. I was very surprised to pop this large cent out. Gave a whisper of a signal but she repeated nice.
The back is in real nice shape but for the hole. The front looks like it was worn when lost. Still fun to pull outta the ground.
