Draped Bust large cent. Was my only good find today, I Found it in a farm field in some real sandy soil. I think ill coat with coin care just to remove the dirt.The 1800 large cent is one of the hardest large cents to find in fine condition. Its also one of the hardest to identify variety. The Sheldon 197 is the only common variety for my coin all the others are scarce or better.Thanks for looking HH

WTG Coop. That coin is in great shape. Could you post a picture of it after you put a coat of coin care on it?

Congrats on that great large cent. I love to find them. Other than silver, large cents are the ones I like best. Keep hitting that field, there may be more there.
