It’s been a really long winter here in VT and I like others have been itching to get out and try to find some thawed out ground. I went to one of my bigger permissions and found an area that I do not believe has been hit before and had an awesome morning. When I first started I dug a few buttons and other time period stuff so the hunt in the iron was on! The first coin that I pulled was a draped bust and then a half hour later I got two coin signals right next to each other I was going to live dig it but decided not to jinx it and wouldn’t you know the first coin to come out was a nova which was a first for me after calming down I dug the next plug and got a matron head and then a knee buckle right next to that.
First is the 1785 nova my first us 1700’s coin

Some truly fantastic finds there gold panner. The nova is very close to the top of my wish list. Yours is a beauty. Congratulations.
 

Congrats on the beautiful NOVA! :icon_thumleft:
 

That's what I call an excellent day! Congrats! That buckle is really nice and the Nova Conatellatio has some good detail left on it!
 

Awesome Nova
Congrats
 

wow it is gorgeous! Great job!
 

Oh wow, what a site! I'll bet you're anxious to get back there. That Nova is beautiful.
 

That's great, I would love to dig a Nova. Two of my friends have found them here in SW PA, but they don't turn up as often around here as they do in New England.
 

Very nice! Congrats!
 

Great handful of coppers! Cool to make it into the 1700’s with a great Nova. Congrats!!
 

Oh Man! The Nova is gorgeous.. your other finds would have been enough for a nice days dig but that Nova looks in excellent condition. Nice, Nice find.
Jealous are we, yesssss..
Thanks for posting & HH, you have the spot!
