Just like my brother stated, it is great to be back. 
I wanted to share with you guys my 2009 season as of this date. KKC has been hitting some great Colonial sites this year, and hopefully, we will have many more coming up soon. It has been a great pleasure digging history that dates to this great era in time.
In early March, we hit a site that gave us many Colonial coppers and Spanish silvers. We actually found 4 here as a group in two weeks. The landowner was cool and welcomed us back whenever we wanted. Since the site is no-till, we have moved on and probably won't hit it again.
In early May, KKC hit a great spot that gave us 23 coppers in one field. I would have to say that it has been our best site yet! Even though, last year, we dug 20 coppers in one field.
Here are my finds:
-1746 Spanish Milled Pillar half real
-1810 Spanish two reales
-Fire damaged half real (not pictured)
-KG III
-KG III
-Connecticut copper
-Draped Bust half cent
-Draped Bust large cent
-1817 Coronet
-1822 Coronet
-Coronet
-1812 Classic Head cent
I am way ahead of last year, in terms of copper amounts. We are aiming for 100 coppers as a group, so we are only 65 away.
I have been researching a great potential site recently. It dates back to the early 1700s and lasted up until at least the 1780s. If we can obtain permission and it has never been hunted before, KKC is hoping for another Colonial bonanza.
Keep the passion high!
