Easter hunt yields 1700's copper

When I was hunting deer this winter in Massachusetts I stumbled upon an old cellar hole and a well. So I marked it on my phone and decided to come back in the spring. I found a handful of buttons and a 179? cent (last digit is gone). I also found a sweet fork. I'm going to invest in some type of sniper coil and go back for a much more thorough hunt. Here are some pictures before and after cleaning.
