THis has Defenitly been the most productive site I have ever hunted. Got the Spanish half reale last night and the Conn. copper which is on the far right. Plus 4 indians and an assortment of other stuff. Went back today for a couple hours, and got the conn copper which is in the center and the Mass cent to the left. Plus 2 more indians. No silver today. But got the day off tomorrow so cant wait to get back there. I have no idea what use to be there. The house across the street, which was built in the 1820's I beleive produced a king george copper a Mass cent and a conn. copper for me about 3 years ago when I detected it. So that makes 7 colonial coins in this small area. So there was somthing there at that time just not sure what. Sorry the scans are not the greatest. Couldnt get a date off the 2 conn. coppers but the Mass cent is 1788. The 3 Mass cents I have found in the ground have all been in really great shape considering. But the Conn. coppers for some reason do not fair aswell. Thanks for looking and best of luck to you all.

Sweet finds, Mainer! I've also been fortunate enough to find a 1788 Massachusetts cent! Several years ago in a forest area here in Mass. Again, congrats of those beautiful pieces of history! :thumbsup:

WTG on finding your old coppers. I'd love to find any one of those in Ohio but probably won't :-\


Ohio Jerry found a Jersey copper in Ohio last year. It CAN be done! It's all about Where you hunt.
