Your Large Cent looks to be in good shape,? is it bent though ,if so it and the button are cool finds
 

No it's not bent..it really is in good shape considering what most copper coins look like coming out of that field..that field is not kind to copper
 

One of my biggest on my wish list! Just gotta head back East to make it happen. Great find, you should be proud.
 

Nice. Been a month or so since my last largie! Love finding them.
 

Looks like a good day!
 

Nice large cent def on my bucket list! Congrats
 

Most of the Large Cents I have found are in very bad condition. Yours is pretty good. Good Find!
 

Yeah I know what you mean..I'm especially surprised because as I said this field is not kind to copper we've found alot of wheaties and a few Indians toasted.. An old old guy stopped and asked how I was making out so I showed him my coin still encrusted in dirt (I thought it was in decent shape so I wasn't gonna rub the dirt off and waited till I can get to the car and run a bottle of water over it) so what did the the old guy do? Starts rubbing the dirt off!! LOL I asked him to stop but it was a little late,some of the patina was rubbed off of her face..Oh well, It's all good
 

Large cent and a button looks like a good site to keep hunting. :icon_thumleft:
 

Thanks,gotta go back to work today..I'll get back out there next week
