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:

Thanks. The pics really don't do it justice but it's a 1731.

Wow! Nice save. Great shape. Congrats
 
Considering I have to use a microscope on most of them. It looks great in all pics!
 
Very Nice!!! Congrats!!!
 
Wow..that is one righteous looking old copper! The detail is quite amazing. Great stuff!
 
Nice find! Every now and then you come across a copper that somehow is fairly well preserved.
 
That's a beauty!
 
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.
 
That is a nice one, Smokey.
 
That is in great shape. Nice find!

Details like that AND early!!! Nice save!!! Congratulations!!
