...sucks, sucks, sucks! I got back out to the homesite that I found a few weeks back. I think that I have exhausted the iron patch so I started into the field yesterday looking for strays. I found a few but as usual with these farmer's field coppers, condition really sucked. The large coin is an 1843 Vicky Thistle and the other two are anybody's guess. The less corroded of the two mysteries does have some detail left but I cannot for the life of me make out anything. Weird too because this coin is still quite thick so I was expecting to be able to id it. Any ideas?

Nice coppers Romeo. It seems like there may be enough detail to ID the better one. What have you done to clean it up so far? I looked at it for about 5 minutes and even moved back away from the screen to see If I could see any more detail. I couldn't. Post another picture if you get it cleaned up any better. Sorry i couldn't help any more.
