Excellent finds all! Doesn't it seem strange when you can't use the headphones and have to rely on the external speaker? Congrats!

WAY TO GO!! It's so cool finding a FIRST! I'm happy for you. I know the excitement you're feeling, as I felt the same way after finding my first one an 1865! I didn't even know the US minted them until I started detecting, then it was on my wish list for 2 1/2 years before I found one. The cool thing is I found it on 10-4-2012, that's my sister's birthday. That is what's so great about this hobby, the history and the stories we have behind our finds!! CONGRATS!!

Nice going on the coppers and buttons the 2 cent is in fine shape.

I totally agree without headphones it's very strange. It's like I have to process every sound consciously and that takes a lot more effort.
