Large cent

[DEHUNTER74]

Finally found my second ever large cent this past Saturday. Couldn't get a date at first . But after soaking in grape seed oil since Saturday, I finally got a date. She is a 1795 , but I am not sure of the Sheldon variety.

That actually looks better than I was expecting. That's a great early coin. I've yet to find a Lib Cap

Congrats on finding a great early coin. Are you certain you have a 1795? From the photo, it looks like you might have a 1796. I say that because of the position of the letter "L" (Liberty) is extremely close to the liberty cap, a trait that is seen is several of the 1796 varieties. Because your coin is so worn, I doubt its possible to confirm a variety. Too many key features are worn off.
