1847 Lg cent error?

Posts: 13
I have an 1847 LC that appears to be a restrike. I can see parts of all the 4 digits. I know there is a variety that has a large 7 over small 7. My book doesn't show a restrike but I'm sure it is.
Found it metal detecting and it is in great condition. A quick search on Ebay didn't turn up anything.
I''ll try to post a picture when I get it scanned.
Thanks for any information.
