A few weeks ago, Mike and I got permission to detect an old property. Mike found the copper Reale and I found some colonial coat buttons. When we were leaving we wanted to show the homeowner what we found. She was gone so we left a note for her to call us. A week went by with no call so we figured she didn't want us back... Another week goes by and I get a phone call at 10PM. WELL past my bedtime ;) so I let the voicemail pick it up. It was Fran and she said she has just been very busy and would love to see what we found and we can go back to her house whenever we want. Whether she's home or not. 2 acres of yard and 8 acres of colonial farmland.

We went back last weekend for a very short hunt. Found a deep very worn Draped Bust. Then Mike gets a deep quarter hit and 20 feet away I get one too. We both dug silver washingtons. 1943 and 1941. I cant seem to get it to upload but I'll get it eventually.

WOW! Huge congrats on the 1600s William III copper! :notworthy:

It still blows my mind that coins from the 1600s can be found here in the States. I can't even break into the 1700s here in Illinois.

Good job on the amazing find! :perfect10:
