Standing Lib Quarter and 1841 Large Cent--great new site

[bergie]

Hello, all. Here are a couple of recent finds. The Standing Lib. quarter is one I mentioned in an earlier post, but just got a photo of it from the main man Earthworms (er, Earthworks). This is one I found in a gravel/dirt driveway of an old house that dates to the 1700s. The 1841 large cent I found this past Thursday at a new site, which is going to be a fantastic site for years to come. It's an old colonial home that has never been detected, and has quite a history. It's a huge property and we were only there an hour and a half earlier this week -- I found this large cent, and my buddy Jeff found a 1912 Canadian coin. Will be back again soon for sure. (Thanks for the comments...JerDFX is right, the stars and date are off center on the large cent, does that add any value?)

Congratulations! Sounds like an awesome site! Do you want to take pictures of the site for people who don't go over to your parts of the states?

SINCE THERE ARE NO STARS UNDER THE EAGLE ON THE REVERSE IT WAS MINTED BETWEEN 1916 AND 1917 IT IS ALSO AN S MINT QUARTER. ...DAVID

Nice finds Bergie,

That large cents date and centering look a little funny. It is in nice shape though.

I do believe your quarter is a 1917. I got a type 1 last fall, and yours looks like the same type.

Bergie,

Is there a normal reverse on that Large Cent? Could we see a photo of the reverse?

It is a Very interesting coin... But I'm witholding my comments until I see the back.


Regards,

I'm going to guess that is the small date variety. I almost had to get my magnifying glass out.

 

[bergie]

Thank you. I will ask earthworks to post a photo of the back tonight. He still has it.
