All my finds today were mangled in some way. The Nova is punctured and almost wiped, the dandies are bent at right angles :dontknow:, flats are shank-less, but my first wooden Nickel looks great :grin: ....and the Nova is my 42nd copper on the year. :peace:
Spent four hours in a corn field with a 13 coil. Fought noise the whole time. I don't know why these corn fields are so loud, emi and fertilizer? I hope everyone is enjoying the weekend.

:shocked03:. Thanks Dan! I don't remember seeing one of those before. I thought it was a nova because I remember the sun rays on the one George found with his pinpointer. :yes:
I like the farm scene, too bad mine is wiped.

Drew , its a very easy mistake them two coins :yes: especially with what detail you have left showing . they are definately my favorite of the Vemont state coins and most are pretty rare too.

Drew, congrats on 42 coppers and your VT copper. Looks like the plow was busy in that field.

Congrats on the old Vermont copper, Drew! What an incredible piece of history! I would have a heart attack if I ever found something that old!
