Was out today hitting up an old site of mine & nabbed the spoon. Love the detail on the back, guessing it's colonial as it's pewter. Does anyone have a link to spoon back designs.

On the way out I hit 1 last site for about a 1/2 hr. & nabbed my 2nd Copper of the season, looks like it's a KG III.

Nice finds. Hard to tell from the pic but that might actually be a William III halfpenny (1694-1701)

Roger, You're killing it in 2018!! What a large bowl for a small spoon handle! I've never seen one like that...I'm guessing Dan will know about it. Two coppers already?! Let me add up mine....ummm 0...zero! Nada for 2018! Keep it up!

Thanks guys! Drew, I thought the same thing about the spoon. Well I only got 3 coppers last year so 1 more & I tie last year, lol!

To be honest Roger the spoon's details looks very very early 1800's era , pre 1812 to me
