1842 Large Cent,1867 Indian Head & A Not to Happy 1903 V Nickel

[Bubba65]

Hi All,

I dug these coins on Sunday finally got them clean enough to post. I dug the 1903 V Nickel first and it is a bent one. Then after some iron digging I dug the Indian Head which was very corroded and very green, I forgot to take a picture of it like that but it was real ugly. After some more junk digging I got a not to great signal and at about 7 inches out came a large copper. After a while letting it dry I could tell I dug a Braided Large Cent which turned out to be an 1842 after cleaning. Over all not a bad hunt and just getting out makes it all worth while. Thanks for reading and looking. Sorry for the sideways pictures I rotate them to be right and they still load this way

That large cent is unbelievable. Phenomenal shape on that one.... I found an 1867 IH this week as well. Great hunt.

Your large cent is in beautiful condition! How did you clean it?

Thanks the hot peroxide method, many on the forum use it.
