<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lordmarcovan, post: 2600819, member: 10461&quot;]A local SE GA detector find.&nbsp; Not by me, but by my buddy Billy Ridenour.&nbsp; He has found some really pristine early large cents.&nbsp; Interestingly, several have been this Sheldon-166 variety with the distinctive die crack on the reverse.&nbsp; There must&#039;ve been a keg of them shipped to Savannah or thereabouts in 1798-1800 or so.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k173/lordmarcovan/17981cAUdetails-obvbefore.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k173/lordmarcovan/17981cAUdetails-revbefore.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s another one found around here.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k173/lordmarcovan/Bills1798PostRoadcent-scan.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve seen so many of my friends dig stuff like this, I hope mine will happen one day.&nbsp; So far the only Draped Bust cent I&#039;ve dug was completely fried.&nbsp; It&#039;s a corroded slug, but was at least identifiable by type when it first came out of the ground.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
