Can't believe it!! I posted the other day my 1787 Massachusetts State Copper. Anyways, ended up going back to the same field the next day, and couldn't believe what I found!! Another 1787 State Copper!! This time It was a 1787 New York Nova Eborac!! Can't believe it, two 1787 State Coppers in 2 days!! This field just keeps giving!! Other notable finds: 4 Mercury dimes, 1 silver Rosie dime, 1928 SLQ, and a 1934 Silver Washington Quarter!! And these two beauties!! I don't want it to ever end!! Cheers, and HH

You may be the only person EVER, in the history of metal detecting, to dig those two particular state coppers on back to back days! The MA is rare enough, but you hardly ever see a NY dug. Congratulations!

I literally thought the same exact thing!! So lucky!! Probably the closest I'll ever come to a banner lol. The Nova Eborac was minted by Ephraim Brasher which I think is absolutely amazing!! Wish it was one of his gold doubloons, but I'll take it. Lol
 

How did you dig Two state coins without digging a few George half pennies and a ton of relics and typical farmer junk ?
That is sick , sic I tell ya :laughing7: not saying it is impossible .... just very unusual .




dAwg

Granted it was a field, but not a big one. It was a house sight, and I don't think it was ever farmed. So lucky though. I still can't believe it.
 

Those NY coppers never show up. That's a hell of a find
 

Oh man, two different ones in the same place, bound to be more, as if that's not enough (is it ever?) great work! HH
 

Beautiful old coins.
Keep pounding that site until you squeeze out all of it.

Congrats.
 

Congrats on the state coppers!!

There's got to be more old coppers. Good Luck!!

You were right! Went back today and pulled 2 more 1700's coppers. A Toasted Ct State Copper and Georgivs II Rex!! This place is unbelievable!! Lol
