1785 constellatio copper

[Greylock]

Dug this today along with some buttons and lots of trash. Almost gave up on a site that didn't produce much last year but I just got the at pro and figured I'd give it a try. I'm really liking the at pro and this spring weather. These are mid hunt photos. If it cleans up ill post better photos. Thanks for looking.

That's a fine looking coin! Excellent find. I love the detail, its always nice when your coppers aren't toasted.

Sweet coin

For once in my life i will agree with IP and not strip the patina on that,,,

Maybe dry brush one side a little..

I agree with Johnny Blaze about using a drybrush only

OMG that's gotta be my favorite coin in the world. I've even been considering getting a tattoo of this coin.

KILLER find! But why would you say that you are going to "clean it up" more? It IS clean! And about as nice as it would get!

Best Wishes,

Buck
