Large Cent dug with Ace 250 on 1/1/10

[zaxfire69]

My wife and I went detecting and the Ace 250 found the goods once again. It was cold and we were walking back to the truck. I was just fast swinging and got a signal of a quarter to a half dollar. Stopped and dug the plug and out popped a nice 1848 Large Cent. The obverse is a little pitted, but I could make out a date. Have it on video. Hope you enjoy...Ace 250 rocks!!

Thank ya'll. It took me a year and a half to find one. i have a feeling there is more out where I found this one. This one was right next to what appeared to be bricks that were under about 4 inches of dirt. Might be an old house or road. Not sure.
