Prettiest British Copper I have ever found

[smokeythecat]

This is by far the best looking copper I have ever found. I was at my "honey hole" in PA scoping it out for a dig this weekend.

Well, this screamer of a signal just begged to be dug. I had my "good clothes" on so didn't want to get too rambunctious, just wanted to see what was in the ground. I found an aluminum can breeding grounds, and this is the only other thing I dug although this site is more CW than anything. This is the first early copper I have dug out of it.



1731 George II Halfpenny Full clear, date. Pics don't do it justice.

Here's another try:

Nice find! Every now and then you come across a copper that somehow is fairly well preserved.

You are right to be proud; that is a really nice coin. The few large coppers I have found in my area recently have all been slick. Congrats on a great save.
