allot of nice finds.Congratulations on your first LC,and a heck of a nice first one to find at that,beautiful!.That 99 might be close by too?I still haven't broke out of the early 1800's with the large cents yet,and most of them don't even want to turn up as nice as that one.

Killer hunt, congrats! Two skeleton keys, in one hunt, I don't think that I have seen that on TNet before.

The LC is in really nice condition too.

Very well done sir!

Believe it to be a Sheldon-171. Need Don or someone else to confirm.....but I'm 90% sure. Pretty good shape actually. Very Scarce. Congrats Hogge

Nice. I'm still looking for my first 1700's large cent. I have dug three 1802's but just can't that early one !

 

[PaDirtDigger]

I sure hope to find a large cent in that condition... I've found nice ones, but yours has nice color tone and looks like a nice surface feeling too... Way to go!!

Really nice early copper. Great detail. Any 1700s American coinage is killer in my book
