Sad I have no large cents to show off. Well I have 1, but it is dateless so I don't know where it would fit it.

nod2003, since IndianGoldEagle is correct, that no 1815 Large Cents were made, why not post your no date on July 11?

I am so looking forward to this thread. I have to complete my Peace dollar set in PCGS MS-63 only and then I am on to collecting Large Cents. I really got exceited about them a couple of months ago at a coin show, up until then I thought they were a waste of time.

Excellent idea on the "No Date" day!  Question: Would copy/replicas be allowed, if properly identified? I have a few (replicas) that could be "gawked at".

Quote:complete my Peace dollar set in PCGS MS-63 only and then I am on to collecting Large Cents. Gulp! Could you wait a while before starting your large cent collection? I need a few more key dates! OK, but seriously you will find old copper to be addictive.
