Just in case anyone missed this in my post last week...




I'm raving about this coin!


What sort of value does she have in this condition?

Thanks for looking! HH

Awesome! Congrats, I found an 1832 looked just like that. My first 1800's coin too.

Nice large cent. I found an 1817 over the summer that was only 3 feet from a really nice 1820. Then I found another 1820 yesterday which I'll be posting shortly. Always nice finding LC's.

Great looking copper, and keeper.

Very nice find, When I was looking it up on the coin explorer (link I put in post above) the thirteen star variety was worth about 100.00 , but your fifteen star is way more desirable, should be worth more? But then there is always the "dug coin" grade. Graders will grade that coin less because of any corrosion at all. At least this is my understanding (I really don't know) There are guys on the site that have much more knowledge on this subject. I wouldn't sell it either, you have a real piece of American history there.

Stopped at a local coin shop just interested in seeing what the guy thought of the two standing liberties I posted earlier this week. The moment they hear they were dug you may as well walk out rather than be insulted by the price they give. This is why I don't put a price to any of my coins. The thrill of the find will always be greater than the worth.
