    Nice looking capped half cent coop!!! I have a fair number of half cents but no capped ones yet. Any CT copper is a nice find but better if it's a rare one The Geo III has a clean front on it. Rang up low I bet!
    Finding relics is in my blood

    always great to see the stuff you find Coop . the KGIII looks like it was crudely cast in a sand mold , we had a member here who had a Ct copper done the same way it rang out much lower too. its a very unique and cool find as with the others you posted Coop.

    Amazing bunch of coins, Coop! That 1794 Half Cent is just incredible! I love the even color on it. Nice clear date too.

    And even though the 1876-CC and 1877-CC dimes are common I've yet to find any Carson City minted coin.

    Congrats on the great finds!
    Lifetime totals:
    10 Large Cents, 415 Indian Heads, 2 Two Cent Pieces, 1 Capped Bust Half Dime, 1 Seated Half Dime, 10 Shield Nickels, 68 V Nickels, 124 Buffalo Nickels, 31 War Nickels, 16 Seated Dimes, 131 Barber Dimes, 405 Mercury Dimes, 249 Rosies, 4 Seated Quarters, 18 Barber Quarters, 20 Standing Liberty Quarters, 89 Silver Washingtons, 1 Seated Half, 3 Barber Halves, 16 Walking Liberty Halves

    Now those are my kind of finds. GREAT job! As I collect Connecticuts I'm always interested in the variety. I could figure it out, but if you know, I'd appreciate it.

CT's start near the bottom of the page. http://coins.ha.com/c/search-results...4951539&No=150 They have some monster coins and major rarities up for sale.
