More field finds-Seated,Large coppas, Fattys,& some lesser Indians

Greetings friends.
It is a wet spring here and the planting is delayed so I get more time to pound some field sites.
These are from some old sites and a couple of new ones. The 1806 British penny is the largest
[31mm] and second oldest I have found. I found the seated dimes 20 feet apart in a muddy field.
The Blake Parkin XLent Sheffield item is I think a fastener from a saw, It has a 3/4 inch stud out from the back. Blake & Parkin manufactured saws and files at Sheffield England in 1851.
Thanks for looking best luck to all.

Man what a great site you have. What a beautiful old bridge, looks like it dates to the Civil War era. I'd be taking pics of that bridge from every angle, it belongs in a book. As for the finds, what more could you ask for. Lot of silver, lots of copper, and a big british copper!. Very well done.
