Hi, everyone, I found this 1844 Braided Hair cent when I went detecting with Zoyboy and Blitz. It was my 1st large cent! I am super thrilled! HH, Keith

Very nice, Keith. With the DFX they sound just like a quarter. You must have received a strong, good signal on your machine too.

Wow! I'm thrilled for you, just looking at the thing! I don't have any hope of finding coins like that here in North Central Texas, so thanks for sharing. I love seeing pics of everyone's finds.

Very nice, Keith... a very rare find you got there.
I felt the same way when I found both my 2 center and 3 center.
