1787 Connecticut Copper

[Kirk PA]

It was a beautiful day today, so Zeus and I got out for a Colonial dig. We hunted the site where our group has found 13 Colonial coppers this Fall. We were determined to add more to that total.

I was getting all sorts of new signals in areas that we have hunted. I found the beautiful silver-plated flower button at a depth of 6". After that, I dug some other relics and was picking pottery up along the way. The best, strong signal of the day was pinpointing at 5". I was glad to see a green copper pop out of the depths. It turned out to be a 1787 Connecticut copper. I now have found 3 State coppers at this site this Fall (NJ, VT, and CT ).

I had a great time hunting a true Colonial site with my uncle Zeus. He found a large tombac button and harness buckles out the ying-yang. What a site! Bucket Bonanza!

Keep the passion high!

Nice one Kirk! I love how they cut that field. Hard to find them that way down here.

Pretty sweet finds. I just looked up Connecticut coppers to see how you determined the date and I was amazed to see how many variations there were. I was also amazed to see how well some resembled King George coppers.

Keep the passion high...I like that

It was a perfect day weatherwise to add to our Bucket bonanza site total. Nice to see another copper pulled from here. You own the Post Colonial site award. I think we can coax another week or two out of the season. Keeping my fingers crossed.

[Don in SJ]

That is great that you have found a VT, NJ and CT coppers at this site. I believe we have had two sites like that where we found all three state coppers. The VT copper being the hardest for us to find of course.
