Etrac first silver and oldest coin ever to date

Went out yesterday to a spot I have hit at least 10 times with my AT Pro . Good targets were slim but I managed to pull two silver out of the junk . One was a first for me a barber quarter . I don't have a fresh dug pic of the barber as my camera battery died after the merc popped out . So the barber is after I got home and cleaned it up . The merc is a 1917 and the barber is a 1915 (pretty isn't it ) Today I got out and explored a cornfield where there were two homesteads from the late 1600s early 1700s . The targets were very slim but I did manage to pull one keeper out of the ground . My new oldest coin to date a 1736 king George II colonial copper farthing . I was beyond excited .... The fertilizer has not been kind to it but there is still a decent amount of detail . It looked like 1756 till I looked with the loop but I believe its a 1736 . Im sure some of the colonial copper guys here can tell me way more about it then I have found in the little looking I have done since I dug it today .
