Hunt with the Dirt Digging crew and a solo hunt nets me some colonial coppers

[Thiltzy]

I had some time off from work last week so I decided to go on a quick solo hunt and scored me a beat up Connecticut copper.
Dave and I also had a chance to hook up with the Dirt Digging Crew from Idaho and I have to say that it was a great time. Frank, Dave and myself met up with Brandon, Eric and TJ at some new spots that Dave and Frank had set their sights on. It was good times with lots of laughs, war stories and new discoveries made that day. I ended up with two more coppers that day, an 1817 Matron and another Connecticut copper which made it 3 CT's coppers for the week. Two thimbles with one being silver and a pocket full of buttons. It was actually my 1st silver thimble that I have dug.
Big thanks to Dave and Frank for organizing the hunts.

I was told that you guys almost walked them to death getting to the holes and that big fun was had by all. Your weeks finds were impressive. As always I'll add.

Yeah, we did walk them to death. at one point we didn't think we were going to find the second cellar hole but, than at around 5:00pm, I found the second cellar hole and that's when Eric found one of the most gorgeous complete brass shoe buckles I had ever seen. Eric was so happy. He said it made his entire trip all worth it.

Also, thank you to the other posters who commented on this thread. Thanks guys.

Congrats on the finds. I have yet to find a thimble. It's not on my list, but a silver is still a silver.

Wonderful finds as always, Todd! Nice pile of coins and relics!

You have no idea how thrilled I would be if I could find just ONE colonial item, even if it was just a button or a common buckle.

Man, am I ever envious of all the history that surrounds you guys up there!

George and I have offered Tony and a few others an open invitation when they make the trip out this way, to take them to some colonial sites. the only stipulation is that the there is no resting until they have a copper and a nice colonial relic.

no pressure Tony
