    WHAT A DAY! 5 LARGE COPPERS!

    Hooked up with rcat & forino at 11:30 am.stayed at the cellar hole until 5:30pm.
    This is the cellar hole where forino found his first large cent a classic head.
    Today i decided to move some downed branches and it paid off.
    I got a pocket spill of 3 large coppers.and 2 single copper targets not far from the spill.
    My coins today were a nice full liberty 1907 indian head penny.
    A unidentifiable large copper worn smooth.a fugio,a no date draped bust,a 1813 classic head large cent a connecticut copper that i can't get a date off.
    I had a great weekend!
    Hope you all have a great week!

    All I can say is "WOW"! That Fugio is amazing. If you post it in today's finds I am sure it would make the banner.
