bmicari New Member United States 7 Posts	Posted 10/02/2017 5:33 pm Found this 1828 Large Cent today. Yes it is dug, but in one of the best shapes I've seen coming out of ground. Thoughts? Report this Post to the Staff

moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 10/02/2017 6:19 pm I've dug a lot of copper and I've never had one come out of the ground like that. Don't clean it any further. And Report this Post to the Staff
bmicari New Member United States 7 Posts	Posted 10/02/2017 6:21 pm Surely was dug today. Found it under a chunk of old red brick which I think protected it from typical corrosion. Found an 1817 yesterday but it's in rough shape compared to this one. Report this Post to the Staff
moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 10/02/2017 7:13 pm I'd be digging that area inch by inch. Report this Post to the Staff
bmicari New Member United States 7 Posts	Posted 10/02/2017 7:35 pm Second visit to that area. It surely has alot of history to it and hoping to see what else may lie below. And surely won'ttry any sort of cleaning techniques. Report this Post to the Staff
RoyCoinBoy Pillar of the Community United States 1609 Posts	Posted 10/02/2017 7:35 pm Go back to the area you found it and do a thorough research. If you lack motivation, just imagine finding a bust cent in the same condition as this. Report this Post to the Staff

bmicari New Member United States 7 Posts	Posted 10/02/2017 8:11 pm Wow thanks for all the input. I'm fairly new to detecting and don't have much experience with qualities of coins. I was under the impression most dug coins wouldn't get much beyond Fine in grade. Report this Post to the Staff
