1800's farm hunt. Big copper, medium copper, small copper...

Been have been hitting a sweet potato farm built in the 1830's. My hunting partner got the nicest find there with a sweet MA state copper. Here are some of my finds. Any help on that Naval button and salvation army looking button would be helpful. That three ring bullet got put into the hydrogen peroxide by mistake, that's why it's so white. That metal piece that says Kroydon is part of an old banjo I believe.

The one in better condition is 1864. The other one...who knows?!?! It's very hard tell to that it's even a 2 cent.

That's what it looks like to me. I'm really curious about it.

Nice looking finds. Fall is upon us. Should be some good hunting in Mass. from now until the snow flies.

The piece that says Kroydon with a 2 on it looks like its from a golf club, a 2-wood perhaps?.

Good luck at the farm...

That looks like a very early U.S. Marines button you have there. Nice snags! :icon_thumleft: :wink:

Excellent. I was wondering what it was. Any sites where I might be able to find it?
