Default How the One Cent coin has changed over the years!

Hi Everyone...

First of all ...I want to thank Mr. Silver and BoobieinPA for inviting me down for a hunt! Was a pleasure spending a Saturday MDing in they're neck of the woods and also finally getting to meet HarryPA.....

My finds....I had a handful of clad and found this beautiful coin...oldest one for me to date! It's been cloudy and raining so the pic didn't come out like I wanted too.....

Happy Hunting!
John

Wow JL that is a nice looking large cent. You all must have good rich ground up that way.

That's a dandy John. I've found only one large cent, and you pretty much have to be a detective to figure out that's what it used to be. I found it in my own back yard.
