Third Hunt and Third 1700's Copper....1771!!!
Joe and I hit the site at just before sunrise, with the mist
still coming down. @0 minutes in I unearth this lare Copper,
and turn to look for Joe, to let him know, and he was walking
up to me with a GRIN and his own Copper.
That was my most significant find of the day. Here are a few
"cleaned up" shots for those of you that are experts in the area
of colonial coppers (Don and Ironpatch and anyone else).
Maybe you guys can steer me right before I call this one
by name.
I'm beginning to wonder if they didn't make counterfeits at this
location. Along with my 3 imitations, Howard and Joe have
both found what appear to be planchets. Clean as a whistle.
Not just unreadable, but clean and smooth.
