Kirk, Kyle and I got out to a new site that Kyle researched. It had pretty good potential but only produced 1 copper. I found it and it was an 1817 Coronet which corresponded to the time frame of his research. We detected for a couple of hours at this spot and came to the conclusion that it was hit before by someone else. This happens enough here. We arent the only ones looking for vanished homesites. We decided to return to the spot that treated us so good for 2 weeks in a row. I wasn't detecting for more than 10 minutes and pulled out another Coronet for the day. Pieces of pewter spoon parts and then I found a 1 piece rounded eagle button. You can make out the eagles head and neck. The rest is corroded. Not long after that I pulled out a decent KG II copper. My oldest coin found by my Vision. That's 3 coppers for me, 2 for Kyle including a N.J. copper. 3 trips to this site and 22 coppers pulled out. NICE. I've got 14 coppers for the year all ready. I can't wait to hit a new spot .

WOW ! CCZ ! ....

That musketball is the bomb ! and the pewter spoon pieces ROCK ! :headbang:

Oh and the coppas ain't to shabby either :icon_thumleft: :icon_salut: :icon_thumright:

KKC may very well be the next generation of datectorists where ya don't need those electronic beepers to locate coppas on colonial sites ..... you'll simply walk onto a colonial site / now cornfield and you yourself will beep over colonial coppa targets ! LOL :laughing9:

Nice hunt :thumbsup:
