Got out with Sniffy to a few new cellar holes.1st site I nabbed a 1842 braided hair LC. my day was complete with this find as I broke last year record of 80 3/4's coppers making it 81.
wasn't too much at this site so we headed to the 2nd cellar hole.sniffy struck 1st with a nice 1803 draped bust LC.then i got a wiped out copper a few buttons.one being a civil war general service button with a scovill's backmark.then i got my 3rd copper a 1812 classic head LC.
was a nice day out.started spittin snow flurries towards the end of the hunt.I said to myself after last year no way I will even come close to 80 3/4's large copper coins ? just goes to show ya everything & anythings possible in this hobby.what a year! :headbang:

Dave, I had 100% confidence you would break your very impressive record from 2011 and am feeling good about you making the magic "100" for 2012. That will solidify you as the "Copper King". I like the eagle button too. Hopefully, the weather will cooperate in your copper quest. HH, Quindy, Doug, & Josh.
