I will work on posting a picture, but everything is just coming out brown fuzz.
I bought 6 large cents, all terrible, for $6, as a toss in on another deal. When I got them home, put them under a much better microscope, and one is a 1796, one is an 1814, and one is probably an 1803. There is also one dateless classic head, and the other 2 are so toasted, they cannot even be identified as being a large cent, so they are getting a Viking Funeral.
They will go to my only, but cheapo 7070 album.

Can't wait to see the photos and if we all agree on what Skanky really is
Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.

.... fixed it for ya.
I'd buy large cents for a buck a piece in any condition. They're great pocket pieces & conversation starters.

<< <i>Is skanky better or worse than scudzy? EAC minds (at least one, but I may be missing my mind) want to know.
Scudzy = 1. To be extremely filthy 2. To have lacked proper hygienic care for an extended period of time.
Skanky = 1. The act of looking cheap, dirty and nasty. 2. Can't post without getting banned.
