Corn Field digging today . . . Well I didn't know it was a Liberty Cap at first, could see no date (still can't) but could see her facing to the right, not left and thought cool a Bust Largy so I put it in my pocket and moved on... then later I recognized a strange feature that I've never seen before on any large cent I've recovered and got a little excited.
Confirmed it once I got home and compared it to the Red Book ~ I won't be able to get an exact date but at least I can ball park it as 1793-1796!


In my book ~ THAT'S FREAKIN' AWSOME!
