next best thing to detecting?

Those are some pretty nice finds! You did well on the large cents. What is the oldest large cent you have in the picture?

Thanks! My oldest is
1805 draped bust large cent
it's on the very bottom row
4th one over. I also have a king George
but it's super toasty and hard to identify

I found two draped busts this year, I think one might be an 1806. The other one I have no idea. Its too bad copper doesn't survive a little better in the ground.

Don't knock that pile of coins, it looks GREAT to me! I don't get much silver, so that's really neat to see, and I love the colonial, so you've got it all! Loved to see it. HH
