Crusty Coppers and Other Finds, 1683 Mass Property

[btjbtj]

Hello Friends,

John hunted a bit over the holiday weekend and dug up some crusty coppers. One is a large cent, we believe from 1797. The other is... ?? We can see a guy's face on it, and a seated lady on the back.

There's also the remains of a spoon, pewter we believe, with a DATE carved or stamped on it of 1775. Now why would a spoon be dated?

Other items are a bronze(?) finial/arrow looking thingy and maybe an incomplete fob stamp?

Happy hunting and thanks for looking! ~Lisa & John
