    MY 32 nd COPPER OF THE YEAR

    went out today with Frank.started out as another button day at the first site.
    a couple big designed tombacs and a tiny plain one
    then finally got a nice coin signal in a low area ,very wet there. between cellar hole & barn hole runs a small stream..it was near stream
    ended up being a toasty Massachussetts copper.tied my last years total now. <:
    next site gave up the pocket watch winder,merc,wheaties and a ton of brass targets.the 2nd site is colonial too but lived in up until much later than the 1st site.seems like alot of victorian era brass stuff at 2nd cellar hole

    Congrats on that toasty copper. I knew you would get out of that mini slump It's nice that you could at least ID it. Some cool looking buttons and a bit of silver too. Looks like a great hunt to me!!

    I have had that happen a lot. Sometimes you are reading the letters that are now gone. Kinda a reverse image is left, with the letters eaten away and now sunken into the coin. But most of the background is smooth as silk.
