7 COPPER DAY* ONE HOLE HAD 6 COINS*2 IH'S

my hunting buddy Forino is up from maryland for the weekend & wanted to get some detecting in.
so,we found 2 cellar holes that we had never been to before.we were all stoked walkin up on these.pounded to death! not even a lousy button :tard:
so,I suggested we go back to my old faithful church green.
working the edge of the grass near the road alongside a tree got a nice 80ish VDI.6 inches out pops the draped bust LC.walked around the other side of tree about 5 feet from the draped bust get a good mixed signal, at 5 inches out pops the 1849 braided hair LC,stick my pinpointer back in the hole another signal :icon_scratch: a chinese cash coin surfaces.stand up scan the hole with detector..another signal :o did this for 5 mins.all in the same hole were 4 canadian LC's,a chinese cash coin and the 1849 large cent.then 2 IH's one being a toasted 1871 :(
I guess i cant count the canadian LC's as large coppers but what about the chinese cash coin? :dontknow: this really threw a monkey wrench into my total on the year.
the 2 US large cents brings me to 67 3/4's what do you guys say about the rest? :-\

Wow, talk about a great coin spill! That location next to the road would have really surprised me. So often I find disturbed soil in this type of place. As for whether those Canadian LCs count as coppers, my vote is for YES. They may be a bit newer, but they are not easy to find. Congrats!

You sure you didn't go to Canada?
Very nice.
 

Re: 7 COPPER DAY* ONE HOLE HAD 6 COINS*2 IH'S

What an odd pocket spill :icon_scratch:

I think you can count them and we should consider promoting you from Captain Copper to Colonel Copper :evil5:
 

Re: 7 COPPER DAY* ONE HOLE HAD 6 COINS*2 IH'S

Nice HMN, been away for about a month but I see you're still gobbling up those coppers like Pac-Man :laughing7: Awesome coin spill :occasion14:

So you got a couple of Edwards and a George eh Dave! :o
The Canadian Government stopped producing our largies in 1919, but when I find them I call them LC's!

The only reason I call our Canadian LC's is because the US started it first! :icon_thumright:
I wonder if this is how the War of 1812 started! :laughing7:

Nice finds buddy,
Dave

Well General Copper, count them all. You need to play the lottery as you can't do wrong this fall. Great coins. HH, Quindy.
