Draped bust!

[RelicMedic]

I went to the cellar hole that has produced a variety of colonial coppers. The land owner had done some digging with his tractor, so I decided to give it a try. I only had 15 minutes, and the first signal came after 5 minutes. It was really muddy, and being in sneakers,I couldn't move much. I found a rock to stand on and swung around it, and that's when I got a solid 11:44 on the etrac. It was obviously a copper, but I had no idea what it was until I got home. It's a 1798 Draped Bust large cent, style 1. Here it is after a little toothpick love. Thanks for looking folks!

Standing on a rock with your sneakers on because it's muddy? C'mon get your boots on and get your rear end back out there........GREAT FIND

Haha no question I'll be going back with boots. I had no intention on stopping there, but I had a few extra minutes before I had to pick my son up from school. Ruined my new kicks, but it was worth it...too bad the wife doesn't think so

Thanks man. With all of the colonial coppers and buttons that have come from this site, I'm really surprised that a nice silver or military button hasn't popped up. Maybe on my next hunt lol. Wishful thinking!
