1803 that is- sorry

Found this beauty after work in a colonial period
Field
Rang up a screaming 42 on my xterra.
Just had to post this coin because of the spectacular
Condition. The clarity and detail on the reverse made me for the first instant think I found Spanish silver. ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1501033030.175228.jpgImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1501033053.878572.jpg

Can't believe how nice the reverse is. :notworthy:
 

That is a beauty...an 1804 would have been worth a lot of money in that condition...funny I have an 1803 in amazing condition as well...must have used good planchets

Check to see if yours is the large date /small fraction
Variety ( mine is the small date/larger fraction )
The large date ones are rare and valuable
 

Daaaang. Wish one of my draped cents looked like that! I found a KGII that comes close, but with a lot more wear.

Congrats!
 

She would be at the front of my diaplay case.
 

She is gorgeous!
 

Wow. Just WOW. Congrats!
 

What cleaning technique did you use? I have an 1802 with a good amount of details but i havent attempted anything yet. Your turned out nice. Great find.
