Results of past three days hunting a field I secured permission to explore on Monday. Found a colonial to mid 19th era homesite thats produced a bunch of coppers thus far including a nice 1722 Woods Hibernia and a Hard Times Token. Also found a mid 19th century site in another part of the field where I got a few more coppers, 2 center, two halves of a trime that I glued together and a holed seated quarter.

Wow, what an exceptional way to start out your 2023 season! :clapping: I especially like the two-cent piece and the trime.
 
Just stop it already. All your doing is reinforcing Tom's theories about you Eastern boys. Oh well, nothing like starting off the field season with a bang, congrats!
 
What a hunt!:wow2: I have never found a US large cent. That place has the potential to be a real gold mine. Congrats.:waytogo:

WOW ! you don't mess around. Great saves Toasted. Congrats on the old silver, 2 cent'r and all the coppers. Hopefully that field has just started to give up it treasures. Good luck. Mark
 
Speechless. Congrats! Unfathomably amazing discoveries :wow: ! Sitting here thinking if I could find any one of those items I’d be on cloud 9 for the year :lol:

Congrats on all those great finds! Love seeing all that old copper and silver!
 
Some great coins. I’m glad your posting your great finds! I missed seeing all of the fantastic stuff you find. You are the mark I’m trying to reach. Your posts give me incentive to keep looking.👍

Good luck on your next hunt.
 
Wonderful finds, hopefully the rest of the year will be as productive. Did you find the halves of the trime in the same hole?

Thanks. Found the two pieces about five feet apart. Half a trime sounds just like a nickel or gold dollar. I dig it all anyway. These older sites are rarely full of trash.
