Zoyboy Strikes a Large Coppa

[Colonial Zoyboy]

Yo, what's up, fellow tnet zoysters? Well, as you may or may not know, KirkPA, PACO, and I got out to the coppa farm today.

Well, to make a long metal detecting story short, my detecting day began in these four detecting steps: I yanked my datecta out of the treasure vehicle, stepped into the newly-harvested field, ground balanced with a tough dude-like attitude, and started swinging with zoyboy determination and passion. You dudes all know how much of a zoyboy I can be.

Well, to make another long metal detecting story short, I got a butt-in within the first 15 minutes. Then, about 20 minutos after the butt-in, I got an "A" on "Quarter" hit on my analog meter, which pinpointed at 6" on the 90s-style datecta. After slamming a few foundation stones down, I placed my trusty Vibraprobe pinpointer into the extreme depths and picked up an 1818 large cent. I instantly yelled, "LARGE CENT, LARGE CENT, LARGE CENT." KirkPA and PACO ran 20 yards in 2.21 seconds, raising their relic shovels in the air like Roman soldiers celebrating on the ancient battlefield. We slapped high fives for about 2 minutes, while yelling and hooting like baboonsters in the jungle. Well, to make a third metal detecting story short, I yanked out 3 more butt-ins and a dropped musketball from an ancient dweller.

All in all, it was a relic kind of day on a relic kind of site with many more relics left to be found on this relic-laden farm. After we got back to the treasure vehicles, we continued to talk about metal detecting and how great we can be sometimes or ALL OF THE TIME.

*All relics were found on extreme private property with total consent from the sweet farmer and his sweet wife.

Hey Zoy, congrats to you on your Large Cent Coppa and all your oooold relics. You, Kirk, and Paco had a great day out there.

How about a repeat next time! Wouldn't that be awesome....except next time, all you guys will score wilvers!!

Congrats,

Thanks, my man, for the kind reply. It was definitely an awesome day and one that I will never forget. Usually, when one guy gets an ancient coin, the other dudes get skunked. However, the three dudes each got an ancient coin this time.

Captn, I see 600 wilvers coming in the next few weeks.

Nice finds, congrats on the LC, but I like the eagle on the button, those are some of the nicest ones to find!

Thanks, Don, for the kind reply. I hope you get another Liberty Cap in the near future, bud!

Nice large cent...much better that the one I found......but it was my first ever so I'll take it. You guys have a great site and you have a great time hitting it.

Zoy, it was a pleasure seeing you excavate an old coppa. You are on top of your game lately!

 

[Colonial Zoyboy]

We are still waiting for the PACSTER to post!

Cool finds, Zoy!

Would love to see a pic after you clean up that LC. I think it will clean up real well.

Thanks for sharing.

As Mr. Walter would state, "Noooooo!"

Indeed, PACA still needs to post his finds.

No cleaning? Not even a little bath of something or another?

Ah well, each to their own.

Way to go Zoy. 2 for 2 so far. Looking forward to seeing Paco's post. Nice largie and I like the eagle button too. I found one with the same eagle on it earlier this year at my colonial site. The eagle on the one i found is raised a little.

Thanks, bud! We are looking forward to going back to the ancient dwelling on Sundee, hoping for another Bust wilver or coppa.

I'm going to try to get out Sundee if the weather holds up. The grass is a little high in the area where I found some of the "good stuff". It's an area off to the side of the cornfield. I'll try to get creative and see what I can come up with. Go get some colonial silver this Sundee. And remind Kirk that he promised some good pics of the site. Lol.

I believe this was proposed by someone on the site before. I agree and I would watch this show religiously. Maybe I could come along as a guest hunter one day.
