A nice 6 copper day

[Dust Eater]

Got on a hot site and dug a total of 6 coppers. The best ones are a very clean 1803 Draped Bust as well as my 2nd 1796 Liberty Cap large cent.

The first three coins in the top of the first picture were in a coin spill and all came out of the same hole. The site dates to right around the turn of the 18th century. The other coins were 3 more Draped Busts and the old head version of a King George II halfpenny. Lots of buttons, a thimble, a clasp, and some unknown hinge-like object.

You had an absolutely wonderful day! I can't imagine finding 6 coppers on a single hunt. If I find that many in a season, I'm doing well. CONGRATS!!!!!

Killer site man! There's gotta be some Spanish silver in there somewhere! Any site that I've been to that had a handful of colonial coppers always coughed up some colonial silver. Well done!!
