Cellar Hunt Yields Fatty's , Buttons and Copper that needs ID

[Gaspipe]

Hi all got out to a site that was nice and secluded and a long but fun hike. It was a virgin site (rarer than hen's teeth) and rather neat. Usually cellars I find that are this small are rather shallow with minimal walls. But this hole was about 10 feet square and a nice deep hole with what must have been a small porch in the back of the home; always amazes me how these settlers lived 200 plus years ago. The signals were plentiful and the Indian's as usual rang up erratically. A nice variety of finds covering all the major categories. But I'am stumped on the coin; it's toasty and what I think is the obverse is shown with the best pic I could get( reverse is complete toast). It also rang up with a low vid so is it a counterfeit? Unfortunately it is clipped where is what looks like a date ...76 The bust is facing left but it just doesn't look like a CT copper. Max had fun, but was bored stiff after 3 hours and he ate all my granola bars.. oh well he's good company.

Nice finds! You really should let Max MD a little - he wouldn't get that board then! Thanks for sharing...

very nice finds. The '59 Indian is one you don't see too often. I hope someone can ID the copper, looks like an old one. Congrats.

Thanks all... I seem to find more Fatty's than regular Indians at these sites. Yes I really hope someone knows what the copper might be.

He put the Britannia the right way but without the Obverse, I'm still going to say Will III Halfpenny.

it's a Connecticut or Vermont. Reads INDE.

OK, didn't click on it & take a close look, just guessed based on the general Britannia shape.

Thanks guys I guess it's agreed either a CT or VT copper . The profile just didn't look like a match ; what I can see of it.
