These 2 were found by my friend at our fav. site...posting for him. He found the Vermont this Spring and the LC a couple weeks ago. This is the same site where I got my Massachusetts cent, we have gotten a several KG's, silver French Indies and lots of buttons.

Glad your friend got a decent looking Vermont copper! Wish more were found, that one appears to be a common variety known as Ryder 16, but I just did a quick check and fairly certain, both my son and I have Ryder 16 in our collections, and in about the same condition, so they were most likely made of good copper! :wink:

Nice oldies. Are you going to have them cleaned a little or are they worn down too much?
 
Great Vermont copper and I love those Draped bust coins. I found alot of the Draped bust large cents and half cents this year and can never get enough of em. :thumbsup:

Nice old coin! HH, Mike
 
Great finds, your friend did a mighty fine job. Thanks for posting his finds.

P.S. The copper is one of the best I have seen on here. Most of the time, guys find coppas but
I have a hard time telling what they are. Great find!
 
Interesting that the Vermont front is in better shape than
the 1801.
THAT is going out in style!!!
 
Awesome !!!! Can't wait to get my mitts on a state copper !! intense find for sure... :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
 
I would sell my soul for a nice VT copper like that one ! The VT is on TOP of my list right now.

Very nice !!!! VPR
 
You guys found a nice spot! I love the Vermont copper!! 8) I used to live not too far from where they were minted, just across the border in NY state.

Amazing Coins
What I think about is, you (your friend actually) was the next person in 100's of years to touch this coin!
Great shape on the Vermont, I'd love to find one of those some day..

Happy New Year
