I WENT DIGGING TONIGHT AND THIS BABY CAME OUT OF A HOLE AT 14 INCHES DOWN MASKED BY SMALL IRON NAILS. I'VE HUNTED THIS OLD HOUSE SITE FOR 20 YRS AND THOUGHT IT WAS PICKED CLEAN. THIS PROVES THAT A SITE CAN STILL PRODUCE. IT LOOKS LIKE THIS COIN WAS DROPPED THE YEAR IT WAS MINTED. I LOVE DIGGIN!!!!!!! 1817 one cent obverse.jpg1817 one cent reverse.jpg

Wow...that is in unbelievable condition. I'd be on cloud 9. I found an 1817 and it's barely legible.
Awesome! Congrats!
