1835 wow, boggles my mind.
That was 77 years BEFORE the Titanic was sunk, never thought I'd fine one this old. Previous record for me was 1857. In very good shape, shows slight signs of circulation on the high points but not much. Looked almost silverish when it popped out of the ground, almost had a stroke when I saw the Liberty head. Cleaned up rather nicely, found it in the middle of a street tearout with a Simplex, if not for the tearout it would have been unrecoverable. Sorry if the pics are sideways, seems all forums are different with pics and I haven't posted here in years.
