insideout Pillar of the Community United States 591 Posts	Posted 10/20/2018 11:53 pm Okay Here is the Coin picture I looked at. Keep in Mind I like em rough and no newcomb variety listed as that is part of the fun for me. Here was the listing title Tough - 1817 Large Cent - US Early Copper Coin *175 Can from a Seller that I have seen mentioned on here a few times for being okay to buy from so I pulled the trigger without even really looking at the coin close. Lesson Learned Report this Post to the Staff
SilverDollar2017 Pillar of the Community United States 8715 Posts	Posted 10/21/2018 10:31 am Well, just remember that design wasn't made in 1817 - that is a Braided Hair cent, not a Coronet Head. Edited by SilverDollar2017 10/21/2018 10:31 am Report this Post to the Staff

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 10/27/2018 7:35 pm You might be surprised what three years or so of carrying it around with some other change in you pocket might do for it. Report this Post to the Staff
