Nice 1753 King George II Halfpenny

[umrgolf]

This is my fourth KGII and by far my best.. 2 of the other 3 are toast, and the third had a nice patina, but it's a smoothie.. If not for the rain, I'd still be there ... Jeff

Dirty George


Lead Seal (any input as to what it might be would be appreciated... train?)

You guys are always kicking some major Colonial butt. Virginia is top dog in Colonial. Add that one to your awesome collection and chalk it up as a Colonial success. I have a feeling that a nice 17th century spectacle buckle is coming under your coil.

Take care and say Hi to Josh for me.

I cant imagine finding them everyday

 

[Trond]

Great find

 

[Tennessee Treasure Hunter]

Awesome finds

 

[{Sentinel}]

Yes, we should've known that it would come out that good. Something about the dirt at that site, really protects the coppers! That's a nice one for sure

Remember that 1773 Virginia Halfpenny was found right near there too and it came out in perfect shape as well. It be nice to find a couple more

silvers there. We'll hit it again soon

Without a doubt colonial silver nearby.. only problem is the properties on either side are no-go's.. one owner said nope and the other wont answer the door 2 properties down we've pulled 3 colonial silvers and a VA halfpenny

Thank u all for the kind words
