my buddy George twisted my arm to go out today to a spot we've been hitting on an off for the last month or so . this place has been good to us and today was a pretty good one too. as soon as we got there we heard shotgun blasts pretty close by ( hunting season has started ) , i wasn't there long when i got a few buttons and a very poor beat up(really not worth a picture) 1817 large cent ( but hey its a copper and i'll take it ) . after a few more buttons i then found a very very worn colonial copper ( verdict is still out on identifing this one but i'm thinking it might be a william and Mary half penny 1694 ) . awhile later i picked up a few shoe buckle pieces then found an 1823 half penny token ( from Nova scotia ) in pretty decent shape. our copper race is in a dead heat now and to top the day on my way out i found a very very nice 1865 indian head . so thanks for looking and HH.

Sometimes if you hold a flashlight from the side of an extremely low detail coin it brings out enough detail to identify it. I am interested in whether it is a Wm and Mary. Great job by the way. :hello2:

Leddel,

Kirk has been telling me about you and your crew's hunting success this year. :headbang: I love your style of hunting and always look forward to seeing your relics from America's early period! :headbang:

The shoe buckle fragments and, of course, the coppers have me drooling! :thumbsup:

Good luck on your future hunts on the Connecticut frontier!

Kyle

Leddel,

You proved once again why I consider you the "King of Shoe Buckles." :headbang: Those coppers ain't too shabby either. The copper race is on for our group as well. :icon_thumleft:

Keep the passion high!
