Default Colonial Site Yields 3 Colonial-Era Coppers

This is my uncle's post from another forum:

We did it again folks. Zoyboy does the research,zeus secures permission and I would have to say we compliment each other nicely. What a team. The same site from last week revisited. We are itchy to hit about 10 new sites but this certain site we have been hitting about three or four times keeps producing so why not go back. I found a mercury dime at about 9 inches which impressed everybody. A half hour later i found a Nova Constellatio 1783 or 1785 post colonial made in England. It's in the Redbook. 20 minutes after that out pops a probable bust facing right post colonial Conn. copper. 15 minutes later a decent shape 1800 Draped bust large cent. I also found a corroded I.H. penny and three wheaties. For all you relic people i also found an old shoe buckle,50 cal. dropped musket ball.That makes 7 coppers in 4 trips.I hope everyone enjoys this post.......Chris
