Great finds buddy. I think you beat me by about 100 years today.

Keep them coming,

Great ole coins! I'm surprised you can actually read the 1776 date, usually coins with wear like that don't have much left too see, or at least the last digit is unclear.

I'd keep hunting that spot!

The 177 was clear at the site. After clean up, the 6 was pretty obvious.

That is my second readable 1776. The last one come from a house across
the street. I have been VERY luck in getting readable dates, I know. Thanks.
Out of the twelve I have found, only 3 were unreadable.
And, yes, I will be all over that site for quite awhile. T
