No way! I was just in Milford PA metal detecting and also found a large cent from the 1830's I believe!!! And this is where it gets even weirder..... I was in paterson NJ friday!
 
pretty good shape for those coins..
 
Congrats on the LC!! May you find many more....

Great find bud! On your way to the 1700s club
 
Very nice first and a great oldest!
 
Great LC! I have only found one of those and it was so crusty I couldn't get a date.
 
Great LC find!

I had a toasted LC, no date.
 
Very nice coin. Congrats.
 
Your large cent shows a lot more detail then a lot of the ones I see displayed here. I would be very proud of that find. And the coins value is in the pleasure it gave you to find it. And can you put a price on your happiness?
 
thanks all
 
Wow L C is in great shape. Congrats.
