I've hunted this field many times before and only got flat buttons and other 1800s little stuff, never any coins until now. This place has been pounded by others I know. When I heard the signal I thought there's no way someone missed this unless it's a can. But it's my best condition large cent yet.

Love it! Right in to the 2x2! Nice coin congrats!

yes sir, i literally grazed my finger lighly across it with some nose oil, and stapled it closed, the only bad thing is this came from the part of the field where all the slave houses were, so i feel sorry for who lost it. i bet they were missing it. but i pay them my respect by putting it in my display case,
 
Fantastic large cent. Great find. Keep looking I'm sure there's more left waiting to be found.
