Hello everybody, I posted here thrusday evening (copper and cufflink kinda day).

Had I know what the next 2 days was gonna produce I would have waited and just posted everything together. We ended up finding 2 more sites, that made 3 in a quarter mile. All in all we found 46 coppers, mostly brittish with some early US large cents and a few half cents. These sites produced some nice buttons and relics. I only have pics of the items I dug, but my buddy did just as well.

I'm still wrapping my head around it, last year altogether I dug 21 coppers, I found more in 3 days then all of last year!
 
Thats 41 more coppers than I've dug in 10 years. My state just doesn't provide. What an amazing weekend. Im voting banner for you my friend.
 
WOW 46 Coppers!!! You have found the motherlode!!
 
Congratulations! You had a great hunt. Thanks for sharing.
 
What state? What kind of sites?
We hunt mainly PA. These sites were early undocumented. Hard to say if all 3 were homesites, or if they were more purpose driven, tradeing posts, stopping places ect. Very early era with several documented 1700s fort sites, private and government from that time period. Alot of colonial activity in this area.
