That's why I prefer clad "farms".

[WHADIFIND]

Over clad "factories". Places built over farms always
give me a sense of possibility. I know the chance is
always present to find something very old!

And...there are always surprises, like this:





I *STILL* think there ought to be a law!!


But then.....along comes that special find that
just makes one's day........






All in all...not too bad a day.





Sooooo....what do you see?
If I'm right, this might be my oldest large cent found.

Thanks for peeking!

Looks like a braided hair large cent 1839-1857 to me. Way to go, nice find!

Congrats on your oldest Large Cent.

Thanks! But, now that I can see it better, I do believe I have a couple older ones. Still, always a pleasure to find!

Get signal, "Ah, probably a deep clad quarter." Then, you flip the plug and say, "Oh oh oh! *That's* no green quarter!" LOL
