Hello,
I had a decent week of finds, the copper was a nice surprise. It was dug up at a old park, I cannot make out the complete date 17xx ?, I was hoping to get some help IDing it and maybe that would narrow it down. Also found an 1909 and 1913 wheat back together but no S and no vdb on the 1909, a neat old bottle sticking out of the ground which says WARRANTED FLASK 7 FLUID OZS on the front and the number 177 on the back maybe an old whiskey bottle/age? and some misc, finds. Thanks for looking, :icon_thumright: .

Good mix of goodies there. Coin is 1730s and appears to be 1735.

Thank you everyone for your comments and IDing the copper, :icon_thumright: ! I guess if I saw the person drop it in 1736 or abouts and I picked the coin up it would of looked similar to one pictured below. I updated my title, not sure if it's 100% correct but I guess it is pretty close.

Thanks again,
TommNJ
