    My first Connecticut Militia button!

    I thought I would share some photos of my last few hunts with Danny (del). I have found several firsts over the past month including my first Connecticut Militia button, first Large Cent with a counterstamp and my first keg tap!Name: 31948483_10211650984853775_6898451057790156800_n.jpg Views: 118 Size: 77.3 KBName: 31306755_10211575318322159_4849036330795008000_n.jpg Views: 104 Size: 64.0 KBName: 31369124_10211596802499250_9170785333455880192_n.jpg Views: 108 Size: 69.7 KBName: 31956580_10211651007974353_7723093853888053248_n.jpg Views: 93 Size: 86.2 KB

    Very nice Donnie and congrats. A counterstamped, holed LC, now that's quite a combo! Still awaiting my first counterstamped coin.
