by far my best day! 1804 LC!

Had an amazing day on an old farm I've been hunting over the past year. Managed to pull out an extremely rare 1804 draped bust large cent type s-266b in incredibleshape, With the crosslet 4 and the die break in liberty. Along with a 1909 vdb penny, 1865 two cent piece, 1906 V nickle, 1878 semi key date Indian head, two whole crotal bells and a few toy cars. All in all it was an amazing day!!

That large cent is incredible. A banner find for sure!
 

I feel like your Large Cent is getting overlooked here. A key date worth as much as that coin is a banner find in my opinion. :thumbsup: Awesome hunt.
 

Great hunt, congrats! :occasion14:
 

Great hunt! The coins are beauties in great shape. The bells are perfect. You'll find a lot more relics there. Good luck!
 

This is a remarkable post and not just because of the recoveries. First its incredible because of the casual (yet highly accurate) description of the finds by the OP. Second, by the scarcity of responses recognizing the importance of the 1804 large cent. Lets be serious here: The rarity and the condition of this coin is EXCEPTIONAL. Its one of the rarest and most coveted American coins we could hope to find. Had the OP been a TNET member for a longer length of time, this 1804 LC is a hands-down, no brainer banner find IMO. Congratulations Skullreapper22, you've found something very special. Please act very slowly now and be careful about how/if you attempt to clean this coin.
