Todd & me wanted one last hoorah before the end of the year.we started before sunrise because of the snowstorm heading our way.went back up to the GW button site nabbed some more buttons,a complete colonial shoe buckle most likely a young boys as it's pretty small and my 92nd copper of 2012 almost 100% sure it's a 1787 Vermont copper.3pm the snow was really starting to come down now & we said ok we are outta here at 4pm
a 1 hour drive took us 3 hours to get home the highways were horrible but we made it! Won't be getting out until snow is gone so 2012 is a wrap! been a great year for sure!

Congrats on an outstanding year. It's unheard of to dig that many old coppers in a year, and I'm sure that will be difficult to repeat. But with hard work and a little luck you just might be able to hit the century mark in 2013.

Sorry the weather prevented you from 100 Coppers Dave but you had a BANNER year nevertheless and added hundreds of great artifacts to your collection. Happy Hunting in 2013, Q.
