Grandpa's cent
« on: September 04, 2009, 11:03:22 AM »
I have wanted to collect large cents for awhile now. I have been collecting other areas and never started on the year set 1793-1857. But last year my great Uncle gave me a 1798 large cent from his father, which is my great grandfather. In the 1960's he graded it VF and Priced it $27. The Red Book lists VF at $575 today. This is the start of my large cent collection! I really enjoy these beautiful coins! ;D
