5 copper hunt! Buttons, button, bell oh my!!

[chefjuan]

I'll try to be brief.

Mom wanted to watch the kids. Ok!

Mom lives 45 minutes away in a great old historic town on the border of Connecticut. Brother says he talked to a farmer who owns the land near where he town was first settled back in the 1700's. I have been wNting to detect those fields for a long time.

Well, it happened. Permission granted!

Found a lonely iron patch in the field and worked it hard for a few hours.

5 coppers
1800 LC, 1802 LC, 1806 LC
two unidentifiable British coppers ( ring lower, like an Indian head almost)

10 buttons
A COMPLETE cufflink!
Massive crotal bell
And the usual stuff....

Thanks for looking and HH!!

Chef
