1797 Draped Bust Large Cent

[Scrappy]

UPDATE: I JUST ADDED VIDEO OF THE COIN REVEAL (just having a little fun)

I went out for about an hour at an old place I call Colonial Parking lot. At dusk I had a deeeep hit. 9-10" down and through foundation rubble popped a green disk. It was too dark to ID so I waited...View attachment 1234454

I thought why not unveil it on video. But now I can't seem to figure out how to add one. Oh well.

Anyway here is the coin. She's toast but still hot stuff to me...



Anyway, had my first MD injury today. Tripped in the dark and shredded my palm on a rock. Finding a 1700's draped cheered me up, and some brandy in a little while will make me right as rain.


Enjoy

Steve

Out of Montauk, but throughout New England and the Banks of Canada

It's called the Grand Banks up here. The Banks is where you put the $$$ from selling the catch.

Well it's a cent and a real oldie at that scrappy, makes mine look young.(eh the youth have still their looks)

Another nice one Steve. I'm trying to figure out who gets out more - you or George. But it's probably a tie since it feels like you both get out every day.

I Dont get out as much as people think! Lol. I get out probably 3 days during the week for about a half hour. Maybe a little more if I push it. I wish I were retired like some people I know...

Haha, yeah. I know the names, I just meant both Georges Bank and Grand Bank together. Lol. Now I work as a Chief Mate in the Merchant Marine. That is until I can get a full time job metal detecting! (Yeah, right)
