The copper factory is still open. Found 4 toasty largies after work today. I think my previous record was three for one hunt. Also got another KGIII and an 1876 IHP. There are two sites in this field but I have found all 9 of the largies, the half cent and two colonial coppers at one site and only two more colonial coppers at the other. Best site I have ever found for large cents even though it has failed to produce a period silver:(

I think 8 of them are Matron/Coronet head so 1820s and 30s. Only a few have good dates. The 9th one is slick but I think its a draped bust. Gotta be bust or Spanish silver out there you would think:dontknow:

Absolutely utterly sickening.

:laughing7:The toasted condition of farm field coppers is what is sickening to me and the fact that I havnt found an old silver here

Nice !! Look like the coppers I find--fertilizer, cow poo, plows really take a toll on them- but love finding them :occasion14:
