Found my best large copper ever....a 1798 Draped Bust Large Cent (type 2). I was very lucky that it was in such great condition. The V nickle is the first I have been able to pull a date from. The 1898 Barber dime is the first "O" mint mark I have on any coin to date. Thanks, and HH!

That draped bust has a lot of detail.. Congrats. The barbers are a bit dark so it must have been a wet area. I like the design on that tombac. I wonder why those newer IH are a bit eaten but the older ones which were in the ground longer are in better shape.

That 1798 Draped Bust Large Cent is BEAUTIFUL! Wow, definitely one of the nicest dug examples I've ever seen. :yes:
The other finds aren't too shabby either. You mention a V Nickel but I don't see it in the photos.
Congrats on the wonderful finds, especially that Draped Bust! :loveit:

Great set of finds and the LC is a beauty indeed. The decorative pewter/tombac button is a great find as well. Keep it up.
