3 1700's Colonial Coppers, 2 1800's Largies,Shield Nickel and More

Hello All,

Went to one of my places today and dug for four hours and what a four hours it was. Dug three colonial coppers 1787 Connecticut Copper, 1787 New Jersey Copper and a 1783 Nova Constellatio Copper. Also dug an 1839 Large Cent and a 1807 over 6 Large Cent. A nice 1869 Shield Nickel came to light along with and 1865 Indian Head Penny.
Dug some nice relics too some cool locks ,buttons and a nice buckle to go along with the coins. The weather was beautiful after all the rains so that helped to make a nice day. Thank you for taking a look.

Happy Hunting ,

Bubba65

Sweet Mother! Nice finds! You said "one of your places." I'm curious, did you hit a new spot at your place, or did you miss these? Or was today's result the result of removing junk over time and now these finds have revealed themselves? Just curious--great job today!

Well done ,very nice finds :thumbsup:
 

Re: 3 1700's Colonial Coppers, 2 1800's Largies,Shield Nickel and More

Those are really some stunning coppers--and the Nova is perhaps the nicest one I have seen posted here.

Is the buckle a large one? It appears to be the "bat wing" style. (Which I am convinced is a 1700s era buckle, although some folks disagree about its age.)


Great stuff.


:thumbsup:

Those post Colonials are the best I have seen posted. KKC has dug one Nova and it wasn't in that good of condition. Is this site a field? Wow, the coppers are superb!!!

Wow, those coppers are outstanding !!!! Quite a trio...

They are in amazing shape. Wish the soil around here was as kind to coppers :'(

You had a day most of us dream about.

Congrats...
