That's awesome! Did you use a sharpshooter coil or attain with it being a trashy park?

Never understood why Canada held on to the large cent concept so long. They must have had to pay the same price for copper as everybody else and so must have been losing money hand over fist to mint them!

XP-Man, that's a nice find. You don't find those very often even here in Canada.

PSS1963, and now Canada doesn't make a cent at all. Too expensive to mint them. I guess that's progress.

Used my 11inch coil on the XP Deus
