My First Readable Colonial......1736'

Ty and I first started this rainy morning out at an old 1700's house that we have pounded pretty hard,a few old coin's and relic's by Ty :thumbsup: and that was about it,a little CW break......I got a few keeper's but nothing like this afternoon's hunt!!!! Brand Spanking New Spot.....1740 House......Pouring down rain pretty much all day here,I even had to "bag" the detector for a couple hour's.We probably only hunted a hour and a half maybe before it let loose again!!!! :-\ But here it is,my First and Dateable "old" Copper....I think a 1736....Cloud Nine Baby!!!!! Soaking in mild detergent and some luke warm water until I can figure out how to "revive" this thing.....Thank's for Looking and HHx2 !!!!!

Congrats that coin has a pretty nice amount of detail left on it! I was so happy to find my first copper. I would be very happy to find that! It was also a KGII. I would say its worn a good deal more than yours but it's worn smooth from use and didn't have the thick flaky corrosion that a lot of these coppers have. It's interesting how different soil conditions work on these coins.
 
Great looking coin! :icon_thumleft:
