Another 1798 Draped Bust Large Cent, this one a 2nd hair style, S-181. It's my earliest US coin. Only two more coins left for me in this thread!

AAAARGH! Missed a day. Hopefully this won't get anybody too confused, but it was the first pre-1800 coin I ever bought and it has a lot of sentimental value to me since I purchased it in my father's honor with some of the money he left me when he died back in 2015. 1799 Draped Bust Dollar:

Nice examples, Barry. Thank you for catching up!  Quote: the first pre-1800 coin I ever bought and it has a lot of sentimental value to me since I purchased it in my father's honor with some of the money he left me when he died back in 2015.
