Quote: A while back I bought a 1794 Liberty Cap large cent off of
ebay. You can barely see the outlines of Miss Liberty and her cap on the obverse; likewise, the date is only readable if you tilt the coin at a certain angle. The reverse has more detail; the wreath is very apparent.
I got this wondrous, 18th-century, less-than-one-millon mintage coin for $40. Another bargain! They're out there if you're patient.
Very true. They're out there. Just need to be patient like you said.
