KKC (KirkKyleChris) got out today to a new site and I found this Coronet cent and relics. We will be hitting a new site next Saturday that Chris and I got permission for yesterday; we are not allowed to hunt it on Sundays.

One more tally in the copper column. Nice finds Kyle! :thumbsup:
 
wtg nice finds, hh.
 
I swear, you guys keep pulling out all those coppers, there will be none left for me.
 
Love those old coppers. Congrats. :thumbsup:
 
Since my copper wasn't rare or in great shape already, I decided to try the peroxide method on it. I only kept it in for probably 1 or 2 minutes. In my opinion, it looks much better than it did before. The excess dirt is almost completely off of the coin. Here is the after pic taken under artificial lighting.

I will probably continue to use the peroxide method on coppers in similar condition as this one.

Peroxide? :dontknow: Welcome to the dark side Luke...... I mean Kyle. :D :D
 
I love finding LC's. cant wait for the fields up here to get cleared its been a slow process with all the rain we have had. The spot i hit last year produced 10 LC's, 1856 dime, and a british coin and of course buttons and musketballs to many to count. Corn is still standing its driving me crazy. Happy hunting all and i hope that soon i will have some finds to post.
 
Great find Kyle! Just one thing, I gotta know, how many old coppas' have you found?
 
Nice fine ..hit that new site hard ..should be alot of good ones! ;D

I have 22 coppers this year and my group has 67. We only hunt once a week, so we are really satisfied with our results this year. Our goal of 100 coppers for the 2009 season is still attainable, as long as we get permission and find a few very promising sites that I have high on the list.
 
I'd take a coppa any day. However, I missed out on one today as my friend found it first :'( Nice digs, Kyle :thumbsup:
 
Nice Find Kyle !
