1800 House Gives up King George Copper

[xlt nh]

Back again this morning before the rains came...only one coin dug in 2hrs, but a great keeper!

1775 King George Copper dug next to the stone wall at the rear of the property...gave her a light coat of oil and she looks great.

Back is worn down, but the date is ledgible (amazingly enough!)...Great time out!

thats a king george the II right? -- I just found a king george the first half penny 1717 to 1724 era -- sadly the dates too worn to make it out --its very badly worn -- I "found" it in all places --- the 10 for a dollar scrap box at a local coin shop -- Ivan

Should be Georgie 3 if it is 1775.
