Hambone Pillar of the Community United States 609 Posts	Posted 07/28/2011 1:03 pm Hey guys, lately I've been looking at early large cents to start my set. Delaner has been a great help to me, he's very knowledgable in that area. This one will reside in my 7070 until time to get upgraded, but here it is: OBV REV The pics pretty accurately show the color of it, but in hand there is a lot more detail on the reverse. So whadda ya think? Edited by Hambone 07/28/2011 5:56 pm Report this Post to the Staff

nwc coin Pillar of the Community United States 516 Posts	Posted 07/28/2011 1:44 pm Very cool. I love old copper - especially pre-1800. Always makes me wonder where the coin has been when it's that old and that worn. YOu know there is a ton of history behind it. Congrats on the new piece! Report this Post to the Staff
