Wow, very sweet!
 

Great hunt. Love those old coppers.
 

Don't we wish they were all this easy to attribute. Those early 1787 varieties are a piece of cake compared to those 33 Z's. Some of those 86's are tough too.
yup,usually have to ask for help or get a second opinion when trying to attribute most Connecticut's. This was the only use of the obverse and reverse dies
 

Some nice coppers there. The Nova is one I'd like to find someday. The batwing buckles are always nice too.
just a matter of time before u dig a Nova, im hoping to finally get a fugio & a jersey copper
 

Wow !! What awesome finds !!
Congrats and HH
 

Nice Nova, I too am still looking for my first one, my son found one back in the 90s right here in our home town area, but not many circulated in southern NJ from what I see or shall I say what I don't see being posted from this area. Areas north of here seem to have had a big circulation of the Woods HIbernias and the Nova and Fugios compared to my area....
