<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Al Kowsky, post: 8309513, member: 97383&quot;]I don&#039;t collect early American copper coins but can understand the allure of seeing a large cent nearly 200 years old with original <b>RED </b>color, &amp; can also appreciate why some collectors will pay astronomical prices for them. The large cent pictured below is a good example. Who wouldn&#039;t be charmed by this lovely coin <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie12" alt="o_O" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />?</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1470805[/ATTACH]<b>USA, Large Cent, Medium letters. Copper: 10.89 gm, 28.00 mm. MS65+RD.

The same coin with brown color would be worth about $2,500.00.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
