FIRST EVER LARGE CENT COIN



Went back to a wooded area where I had found a silver quarter and some wheat pennies.  It was slow going at first finding only a couple of memorial pennies and a quarter - then I found a 1941 wheat penny.  A few minutes later I had what I thought was another penny hit - well it was - I was not expecting to find a large cent copper 1820 yupeee!! I thought it was a token until I wiped it off.  My oldest coin to date.  Then I found a silver quarter 1957-d so this turned out to be a great day.  I will heading back in the woods soon.
