Don where r u. Well decided to hit the colonial field with buddy Jim 1 more time. Well Jim hit the first one 1761 2 reale, well I hit second find. I think its a serpent head NEW JERSEY copper small outlined shield. Kinda toasted but detail still there. And last is a 1/2 cent with lettered edge which would put it between 1793-1797 will get picture of that soon. HH Mark

Re: Well hit our colonial field 1 more time NJ copper serpent head? picts fixed

I think i got those picts fixed
 

Nice pic, congrats!
 

Nice going on the coppers. Jim's reale looks sweet too.
 

Mark, congrats on the NJ copper, hmmmmn, you still need Photographing Coins 101 though :D The copper is not a Serpent Head type, I sometimes wish Redbook would do things a bit different for Colonials, so many think they have found a Serpent Head when in 90% of the time it is something entirely different. If I could see better photos showing all of the coin there would be a better chance of ID the variety, I cannot see anything on the reverse side to help, but the the ear position and plow beam are wrong for it to be a M.54-k variety. Might venture an semi intelligent guess if I saw a tad more detail...
