I found this LC a few weeks ago but couldn't see much detail. I took it out of the olive oil and no date. From what I can see it looks to be a draped bust, somewhere between 1793 to 1807. I wish there was a date but I'll take what little detail is left ... I mean its over 200 years old so I'll take what I can get.

Thanks. I like showing people a LC that have never seen one, they can't believe how big they were and usually say "that's a penny". LOL.
 
Awesome find, and believe it or not, it's in better shape than my DB largie lol
 
real nice piece. too bad copper coins don't hold up to being in the ground for a long time.
still great find !!
