TNet friends, today I found an 1856 Large Cent in the typical dug-up-from-the-ground condition. It's patina is flaking off and much of the detail is gone.

The homeowner wants to keep this coin, which means I need to buy a replacement 1856 LC for my collection.
BUT - all the ones on the auction website don't look like ground-dug examples, they look like coin collection examples.

Does anyone have a metal-detected, ground-dug 1856 LC that looks anything like the one I found and that they'd be willing to sell to me?
