COLONIAL TAVERN SITE*1787 CT COPPER ,SILVER & A COOL COLONIAL KEY

got out today with foundation hunter(Gary) went back to an old colonial tavern site that he pulled 18 coppers from in the past.before we got to that site there was a foundation just before it that had some logging trails just cut through the dense woods behind foundation,that's where i dug the barber and indian heads.
once down at tavern site was pretty quiet then got a deep quarter reading out popped a shot blank copper.Gary was next to yell "hey check this signal" yep sweet signal at 8 inches.he got his 1st Fugio cent.
few mins later not far from his coin i got a reading at 8 inches,then the 1787 Connecticut copper saw the light of day.a few buttons one being a nice designed one piece with a W.H JONES & Co backmark.then i got a good iron signal & decided to dig.pretty cool old hand forged iron key.pretty cool the way the end is curled like a stove burner .
a nice day out & lookin forward to sundays hunt with "the rebel" Roger.

Nice find on the CT. You can plainly see it is off-struck. Too bad it's not in better shape for variety ID. Maybe someone can figure it out, but it's a tough one.
