Great Day Detecting... Lots of history including what I believe is a gold plated scabbard tip, 1870 Indian head cent, 1828 large cent, early King George cent from 1700s, and a William and Mary Coin which is from the late 1600s.
Also dug the usual assortment of things you find at old houses. Oh there was also a standing liberty quarter, pocket watch, parts of a buckle and a bridle rosette.
Thanks for looking
HH

Those coppers are fantastic and the condition couldn't be better! The two Colonial coppers are amazing... But wow, that LC is perfect. Looks like it was uncirculated when it was lost.

Wow-that William and Mary is a rare find in the states-congrats. The other two coins are good finds also, and the scabbard tip and pocket watch-you really hit a home run!

very nice early finds you have there. Those 1600s coppers are not an easy find

It's amazing how much more forgiving the soil is up there compared to down here in East Texas. Great finds!

Congrats on the W&M copper, very cool. And the condition of that 1828 large cent is just ridiculous.
