Got back to the place that gave the 1730 KG II copper. Started with a few wheat cents and a few other trinkets.
A few more coins here and there before deciding to head back over to the KG copper area. Found a couple of buttons right off, which was promising. Then a deeeep signal came up, but it was promising because it hit from all angles. Dug down and finally popped it out of the hole. It was surprising to see a thin copper. Was totally expecting another KG and put it away and kept going. A little while later a nice vintage sterling earring comes out. It's the screw back type, which doesn't look comfortable at all to wear.
After 6 hours it was time to call it a day. Got home and some dirt had fallen off the coin... but instead of a KG face, there's a large eagle? What's going on here? It is a token? There's no way it's a Mass cent...But it was! Was hoping to get a date but unfortunately that's the most worn part. I'm thinking 1787 but am only 50% sure (it's a 50/50 guess anyway 'cause it was only made for two years, haha). Planchet is super nice for this area... like the KG. Going to get spoiled with decent coppers!
Whoops, forgot I also got a 1937 buffalo nickel and some wheat cents.
HH all!
