A copper is a copper and we'll take all of them that make our detectors beep.  It would be nice to get into a new site tomorrow, but, if not, we always have a few old standbys to hunt.

Pete the Colonial Man, we find a nice variety of coins in our area.  We've dug, in the last few years, the following types:
-1694 William and Mary
-Late 1600s William III halfpennies
-KG I's
-KG II's
-KG III's
-Connecticut coppers
-New Jersey coppers
-one Nova Constellatio copper
-Liberty Cap half cents and large cents
-Draped Bust half cents and large cents
-Classic heads, Coronets, and Braided Hairs
-Spanish silvers
-1806 German silver

We do find a great variety of coins here, but when it comes to military relics and buckles, there are very few found in our area.  I attribute it to different geographic location.  As you've probably noticed, Rev War buttons (many, but not all) are very common in Canada, but in the U.S., they are found much less.

Keep swinging away on that killer site, Pete.  You have been amazing as of recently! headbang

So there's the other LC Chris was stuttering about yesterday in his post.  Nice coin you found, Kirk.  Those Classic Heads are not too common of a find.  Did you find any buttons, or the rest of that Musket that I asked Chris about in his thread?

Anyhow, keep mining the coppers.  Smiley

 For undug coins this is true.  For dug coins this is untrue.
 The value will increase with judicious cleaning."
