Colonial coins ,large cents found at a wooded Mill site....

[The Seeker]

? ? ? Not often do you go into a wooded area in searching for a? cellar hole and find out there is no cellar hole at all, but instead find the remains of an old mill along the creek .? With looking at the marking on the map it lists the house being there with no name.. So in search of this site yesterday I noticed a r ock formation at the edge of the creek ,starting to detect I came up with the large cent with the hole in it within the first 5 minutes . it was stuck to a small rock about 5 inches down the dates? on the others are 1848 and? 1820 something...A few of the other pieces believe it or not were only down 1 to 2 inches in an area where the digging is tough with the amount of stones in the ground....The? buttons are nice to find with the flower patterns on them.? The? one coin with the bust looking left and the Harp on the reverse is one I'm not sure of. Its not in the red book also not in the us token book.... any suggestions? would be helpfull and appriciated.....this is the other half of the Guinea story.......thanks? Seeker?

Sorry, the picture I sent you may be different as different ages of the coin had different designs.... But still a penny

God bless

Very nice finds. I sometimes envy you guys on the East coast with the older American heritage and thus older coins. Settlers here came in the late 18th to early 19 century. But you know, I've been laying low reading my history books and have been amazed at how things have changed in the last 100 years, which is about how far back some pictures date in my book.
I can't help you with the coin I.D., but there's something magnetic about big rocks. People love them. Another interesting observation I have made is that the only trees recognizable from 100 years ago are......Palm Trees. Thanks for showing your finds. rb24
