Only 1 clad dime today

[pulltabsteve]

But the rest was TOTALLY COOL!!! |:cheering: Mike and I got out at sunrise this morning which is our usual schedule. We hit the field as the sun was rising. We tried a new area and it was very quiet. We wandered for about a mile then saw that a spot we previously hit and pretty much cleaned out was freshly plowed happydance02 We decided to hit it again and we're glad we did. I got what looks like an 1805 and an 1817 large cents. I also got a very shallow 1791 reale, along with a dozen or so flat buttons. The button with the star is pretty cool.
The reale came in as a button. 12-27. On Mikes M6 it came in as a 40. Kind of odd isn't it? Counterfeit maybe?

What a sad title.....very nice group of keepers. Send the reale to me for confirmation lol

Awesome finds, Steve! Love the large cents! :loveit:

Yeah, the reale has a plated look to it. I would think it should have had a much higher CO number than 27 if it were silver. Perhaps your counterfeit suspicion is warranted. Still a cool find!

Congrats on the great day! :clapping:

Just realized the 1805 is actually an 1835. The heads facing the wrong way but I'll still take it! :cheesysmile:

Definitely a fantastic hunt in my book... or more accurately my dream book. :drool:
Two early LC's, especially the 1817. :smitten: Then you top it off with a Reale. erfect10:

Enjoyed the pictures... especially the field shots. :daydream:

Congrats Steve. :beerbuddy:
