I bought this very nice Draped Bust Large Cent for 85.00 on USA C B. Shipping was free. It's S-238. You can see the Die Cracks on the reverse. It's in a nice, circulated grade. I'm glad to have it in my collection. https://www.pcgs.com/coinfacts/coin...238-bn/36323

Nice pickup EV
I swing a metal detector and have a knack for finding dirty old coins.

Excellent acquisition, Errers! It's always good to pick up early US cents.

Thank you, jbuck, Zurie, and Hondo Boguss! Also, thank you to the moderator that moved it over. I appreciate it. This coin was expensive, but it's in a nice grade. It'll make a great addition to my Classic Large Cent collection. I have two more Draped Bust Large Cents that'll be coming in the mail later. They're not in the best of shape, but they'll still fill the holes in my collection.

Very nice EV I'm always afraid to pick up new things that I don't have I tend to go all in . And it would be expensive. The wife would not understand.

Very nice cent. I'd love to know where she's been over the past 220+ years!

Thank you, Bump111! Me too. This coin probably can tell some crazy stories, if coins can talk. It's pretty well persevered for its age.
