The copper is a left facing bust. Maybe KG II. Could be a post colonial also.

I see that too Chris. I'd like to see a few pics of both sides of the copper. Might be able to make an accurate ID. Nice finds. :thumbsup:
 

I found the date its a 1782 but the head dose not look like a kg. The back is bad but I can see some letters around the rim so I will try to clean it a little more. Thanks

If it's 1782 it can't be Geo. II.

It's either not a bust left, not 1782, or something more interesting than the typical dug copper.
 

I finally cleaned the copper good enough to see what it is. Its a 1788 Connecticut copper that's two out of my last three coppers being Connecticut's.
 

Repost the pics of the Conn. Would like to see obverse and reverse cleaned up. Great Find! The Hogge :headbang:
 

It didn't clean up good enough to post more pics it. I had to wet it and use my magnifying glass to finally find out what it was its a lot worse than my last one but I'm glad i got a id.
 

Any time you find a copper on a hunt, it is considered a success. Great job, collector.
