1800 Large Cent for the Type Set

SkyManSkyMan Posts: 9,493 ✭✭✭✭✭
Here's an 1800 LC I got last year for my Type set. I was browsing the lot boxes at Heritage's June Long Beach auction and saw the piece. It's in an OGH PCGS VF25BN holder. I'm a sucker for green copper and decided to bid on it. Low and behold I won it. The images are by Bob Campbell and I think he did an excellent job on it.

    I like the fact that it's in an OGH. With pre 1815 copper, that's a big deal and I won't buy a pre 1815 copper unless it is in an OGH. That coin is a keeper.

    Well above average planchet for an '00, as many seem to be dark, corroded, etc. - and a lot of detail to boot.

    Coin looks like an XF that was net graded a bit. OGH copper sometimes is net graded a little in a bit of an EAC style. Details are strong.
