Bob, The photos would have been even smaller yet if I had added those two last King George coppers, but all I did was take my existing photos and added text, could not think of an easier way without making too many photos to view of coins, since I did want to get some of the relics in there, which are still under appreciated by too many.
(Oh, one thing I do when photos appear small and want to see better, since Windows XP has the zoom level function I just up the zoom level from 100%)
The 4-5 coins still seems to be average for older sites, with 7 or more being special, work places near homesites seem to produce more coins, not sure but it appears that way. If I hunted more fields (which are not really that many in my area to hunt) maybe I would get more per site, I think wooded sites are good at hiding an extra few coins that only a forest fire, or coming back in ten years and maybe a rotted tree is now gone that was hiding a coin or two.......

Don in South Jersey said:Kirk, most likely a work area or tavern, or maybe a few houses were bunched closer together for some reason. I have heard of two or three sites from three other detectorists who found as many as 40 or more colonials, not including US Large Cents from one general area. One was a F&I fort site and one we think was a Stage Coach stop/tavern, can't remember what the third area was thought to be. But, those dream sites are far and few , darn it.
