Welcome me to the 1700's club!
So, I took a couple guys to my 1700's farm permission today. Was me, GI_jungle and a friend of his. You can see Gi's, SNY plate, on todays finds, It's AWESOME! All three of us dug many colonial relics(I don't have pics of mine as i gave most of them to the owner) but, I did find this awesome coin. 1788 vermont copper(ryder 20 I think) and I thought it was another LC at first but Jon quickly dismissed that and offered to buy it from me right then and there....lol. I didn't sell, btw. Two firsts here, 1st 1700 coin, first state copper. I'm very excited about this find! Also, I found a gun, not sure if it's real or a toy, what looks to be a colonial knife, a pair of scissors and a war nickle. As I said, there was a bunch more but I screwed the pooch and didn't get pics. If anyone can give me some insight on this coin, it would be greatly appreciated. Also, check out gi_jungle's SNY belt plate. It dates to the 1840's. Thanks for looking. I would also like to say that I have hit this yard many times last summer with my 250 but the ATPRO had it's maiden voyage there, today. It did me proud!
