I've been visiting this website for a while but I felt obligated to create an account to share this find. Me and my dad were at a farmhouse in Bucks County Pennsylvania. The original house had been built in 1710 so our hopes were high. After about 15 minutes of searching I pulled an old colonial copper out of the ground. The coin itself had been reduced to a copper disc but it was encouraging. About 3 feet away on my next dig I pulled out this half cent. Curiosity got the best of me when I noticed lady liberty looking to the right. Turned out to be... 1794!!! My best find ever!!
