My 16th Connecticut is my best. M16.H-6 EXTREMELY RARE R-7!

Found in Windsor Ma. This field has yielded over 50 colonials! What detail on this thing. By far my best Conn. The others are....1753 KG, 1773 1/2 REAL, another KG, and a colonial slug. Only took 3 hours. Thought this place was tapped out. I guess not. Field is still 1/3 covered with snow and frost. We're not done yet!

Just to correct my post......the variety IS.... M16.6-H. NOT "H-6", as my dyslexia kicked in. LOL!

Windsor Common

Beauty! I believe that your ID is spot on. By the amount of colonials that have come out of that field, I believe that is was a "Common". I was fortunate to have "Found" the old Richmond Common back in the '90s. I, and friends, recovered many colonial coppers, buttons, buckles, Large Cents, Spanish silver and even a few modern pieces of silver. At the time we were working it, it was plowed and planted (corn) every year. Congrats!

UPDATE: It seems the M16.6-H has been "delisted". Was notified by a C-4 member. Seems the variety is only a late die state of the M16.5-H. The only difference was the "CE" being closer together by allusion from the failing die. BUMMER! The COINFACTS website is no longer updating these changes. Not my fault, but as it turns out I actually have a RARE...M16.5-H....R-5. Didn't mean to mislead anyone as I did not know of this. I actually had the ID correct as regards to BREENS and the website.😭
