Today’s finds after a chilly hunt in New Jersey. 1806/7 KG III ahttps://www.facebook.com/Detectoristdotcom/photos/a.682019801967763.1073741829.669802223189521/868042326698842/?type=3nd I think another KG or largie that got flattened somehow. Clad quarter, dime and three pennies, a buckle and a few oddities.

Close up of the 1806/7 King George III I dug today compared with a test bed coin I bought last year to create my VDI charts. I dug another one of the KGIIIs in November as well.

Glad you could get out and do some detecting in spite of the snow!

Way to save that KG III from being lost forever! No snow here in Illinois yet. (Knock on wood.)

:congrats:

Nice grab! Looking like we might get another week or two before the ground freezes. Happy hunting

I don't think I've ever found that type. Nicely done! The obverse looks better than the reverse on your example coin. I guess the penny pincher who owned it only pinched one side :)
I really want to get out. There is little snow here but the temps my availability have to match up. I guess the door is closing CONGRATS!!
