Finally after 5 years,I got my first big copper

[saltyshark2002]

I started on a new park on Sunday.5 Minutes into the Hunt, I had my very first Large cent.Back cleaned up fairly good but front had some pretty solid crud all green.I tried vinegar and Baking soda,Peroxide,I still cant get a definite date yet only 18** so far.It is a later variation,looking to left and no flowing hair.I have it soaking in vegetable oil,(out of olive oil).I managed a second one also but it is far from being round(2 holes threw it too),the front side was toast but back can make out one cent.I also managed a 1958 Rosie on sunday,and a 1957 rosie on Monday(would have stayed longer but ran out of daylight).I will get pics if I can get it to clean up.
