Old Apple Orchard Hunt yields 1787 Vermont copper update

[CMDiamonddawg]

Hi T Net Checked out an old field near the town nearby that was Est. in the 1760's . Two cans of bug spray , an old Fisher CZ , 5 gatorades , and 5 hour random search yielded some exciting finds. First picture ... Hit this picture frame right out of the gate . It is brass and I found all 4 corners intact in the field the picture was long gone of course , but it cleaned up great and it is in amazing condition . 8) Iron square nails led to an iron hook or pot swivel . Shards of china and pottery , oyster shells , brick and stone ... tell tale signs of habitation. Seems like there was more in the field then crops . Found some musketballs , one inch iron ball , some buckles and another fancy rosette . A neighbor of the owner showed up and told me there were apple orchards in the field many years ago . The stone could be native american , I am not sure put it seems too out of place and different than most of the rocks here . Lots of iron ore . Best finds were a 1787 Vermont colonial " Vermon Auctori " Inde Et Lib on reverse , 1787 KG III Hibernia " always a to get one , a superfine backmark flat button , a tombac pewter button , ornate brass picture frame and an old gold ring . Feels good to finally get back out in the fields Thanks for stopping in dawg Have you found a Vermont copper , I would like to get a quick count from T Net finders of Vermont colonial coppers. Curious to see how many Thanks

Dawg, I've recovered 1 Vermont copper here in western PA.

Nice seeing the varieties listed of those who know for sure. Our four are Ryder 1, Ryder 16, Ryder 16 and a Ryder 21

Thanks Don , your Vermonts are included , weak detail on the Vermont I dug . I appreciate your variety ids . I found a Ryder 10 years ago but sold it . The count was to see how many may have been dug in Vermont . Teleman from Vermont has found quite a few colonials but no Vermont . I guess the baby head Ryder 9 found by , foundation hunter from Conn . is one of the best here on TN and this is # 15 Thanks to all who supplied help with a quick total stay cool

I wonder if that rock is the business end of a tomahawk or war mallet?

Great finds!

Obviously, if you are in need of someone to help do more "research" of this site, feel free to PM me.

The rock has a look of a weapon . I am jammed up with work but any chance I get I check for new fall hunting ground , have a few lined up already . We'll do , Thanks bigcreekdad

Thanks Skypirate 8) CMD dawg
