1787 CONNECTICUT COPPER

[Jason A.]

I found this post colonial copper this weekend on a old site. It used to be a farm that dated back to the 1750's, then the land was divided into smaller lots around 1840. I found it on the property line where there used to be a old barn under thick brush, roots that I climbed into.
