Draped Bust Half Cent

[Thebigd81]

It was 26 out with nasty wind! I hitting where there was a house in mid 1800s with no luck so ventured way to the other side of the yard and pulled out this beaut. My first half cent and it's a draped bust to boot. Not 100% on the date but it looks like 1807

I hit it with toothbrush but other than that I don't clean any of my coins unless it's completely shot
