Sorry, a bit late to the party. Hope you don't mind jumping back a few years...here is my 1827 large cent. Found it in a 1/2 off bin at a coin show. Didn't see the scratches till I got home.   Now back to your regularly scheduled programming.  |

twill- invest a nickel in a new holder. any time you have a tear like that, you can get tarnish on that spot, making an uneven and ugly overall color.

March 16 means it's 1851. Here's a scan of mine.   1851:Millard Fillmore was President of the United States Napoleon Bonaparte was President of France Victoria was Queen of Great Britain Nicholas I was Tsar of Russia Population of the United States - 23,191,876 Population of the United Kingdom - 24,700,00 Population of Canada - 2,436,297 January 23 -- The flip of a coin determines whether a new city in the Oregon Territory is named after Boston, Massachusetts, or Portland, Maine, with Portland winning. Mid-May to mid-July -- The Great Flood of 1851: extensive flooding across Midwest U.S., town of Des Moines virtually washed away, many rainfall records hold for 160 years. September 18 -- The New York Times is founded. December 24 -- The Library of Congress burns. Edited by matchbox

Biggfredd - Just gave it a new home, took some time to go get a holder for it.
Vermontensium - I was rather bummed to see those scratches, but over all happy since it was in the half off bin!
