Got out up to a site that i found a civil war new york cuff button & a trigger guard at last time there.This time I spent most of the day there and did pretty well. 1817 matron head LC,1810 classic head LC,a 1837 hard times token & a King George II.That brings me to 23 1/2 coppers this year.
how ironic that i'm coming up on 9 years sober & dig this unusual token like thing
a very nice day at this site.
I decided to film a little of the day.youtube link is below.
COLONIAL CELLAR HOLE SITE with HEAVYMETALNUT (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VJJeQuw1jt4#)

Great finds. Those large coppers are always nice to find, even when they are worn almost beyond recognition. Nice relics also. Congrats.
