jfransch Pillar of the Community United States 1801 Posts	Posted 02/20/2011 1:50 pm I am really getting frustrated, I have many coppers I want to post on this thread but no way to get a workable image. I use a flat plate scanner for my silver coins but the copper turn out too dark on the scanner and I can't get my cheap digital camera to take a decent photo up close. ANyone out there know of a scanner setting that might work on copper? By the way Moe, looks like you have quite a string of LCs, do you collect by dates in an album like a Dansco?

Moe145 Pillar of the Community United States 8904 Posts	Posted 02/21/2011 08:44 am Hi cdn44fan! Nice coin but it's not an 1828. The bust style of your Large Cent did not start until 1839. (See the 1839 Booby Head LC I posted and see if you agree...). Report this Post to the Staff
cdn44fan Valued Member Canada 221 Posts	Posted 02/21/2011 09:04 am Yeah I think you're right Moe, haven't really looked at the shape of the bust. Sorry everyone for my bad Happy Holiday everyone Got to go and snow blow the drive again Report this Post to the Staff
