1800 Draped Bust Large Cent

[cannonball]

I was getting cabin fever so I decided to go out and brave the cold. I needed some exercise. I followed a trail of iron that lead my to this early bust coin. I believe it is a type 2 hair. I understand that there are 27 different varieties of the 1800 Bust Cent. I'm hoping that one of the professionals here can attribute it. Thanks for any input. Stay warm and Safe!

Great looking copper, well worth the effort in getting out in the colder weather.

It was not an easy one to get a quick variety ID on, but I think thanks to the attribute that I could see I got it! Looks like a Sheldon 212 Rarity 3 Scarce I believe. The Spike on the inner side of the letter C in CENT was diagnostic for me to say that is what your coin is. Nice getting a largie in January!

Wow, that 1/100 is unusual. Great coin to find. Especially this time of the year.
