Just before I found the 1798 8 Reale I found this 1799 Britannia! I was about to stop and go home...I didn't think it could get any better than this...I was wrong!

Way to go, man! I found 3 Colonials this year and that one is by far the "prettiest!"

I could not believe the detail on this coin...usually the coppers we pull are almost, if not completely, stripped bare. I pulled two other coppers that were in fact stripped. At this same house the guys I was hunting with pulled an 1862 New Brunswick Penny, a 1913 Newfoundland Penny, an 1832 Nova Scotia Thistle Penny and another copper, possibly German, which I cannot remember...It was a good day!
