Talk About COUNTERSTAMPED!!!!!!

civilman1 · Sep 5, 2009

Ty and I went back to the 1700's site today joined by our good buddy rtde3 (Rob). The weather was perfect and the digging was just as good.Lot's of signal's and lot's of iron but we all came out with some decent find's.The biggest find for me today was a counterstamped copper....although this puppy does'nt have any date is does make up for it with all the other marking's,never seen anything like it. It measure's 29.8 mm.....any info would be appreciated.Also came away with two Injun's,1902 and a 1903 in pretty good shape.A 43-D Wash.,38' and a 44' wheaty,couple small buckle's and a suspender clip,misc. plated jewelry part's,button and two 3 ringer's.Any info on the copper would greatly appreciated........Can't wait for the crop's to start dissappearing.Thank's and HH!!

Well, I'm not able to find another example online...but one was found last year and remains without an ID.

We need to get this piece ID'ed. I have a hunch they're a good find.

Funny you should ask that Doug. Because I did bring my water machine & some sand scoops just encase I could not take it anymore & jumped in Antietam creek that this house was right next to.

Ty said if I started to find stuff in there that him & Joe would jump in too!
But I stayed on land all day.
