In the order posted is the G.A.R. Buckle complete with loop in the same hole.
Second is a NH Militia Cap Plate, the State seal.
Thirst is a 1778 Miller 33.29-gg.1 ETLIR, Rarity 5 or URS-7 (somewhere around 30-75 known examples) Now, I am going by what I believe to be correct on this coin. I could be wrong and would welcome any correction from anyone with further info.
I have had a very good year and have several more wonderful finds. These are at the top of the list.
Thank you for viewing and wish you all the best of luck in your adventures.

Some nice finds, I like that hat pin, HH
 

Thank you
 

Bob, I think you may have what I found this year: a 1787 33.38-gg.1 Connecticut copper. It is very rare and only about 12-20 are known.

Note the die crack on the reverse of the copper. Yours is in the same place.

Taking a quick look, they might have shared the same reverse, but I think the bust is different. Look at the space from the "A" to the "U" in Auctori. A bigger gap in your coin and fairly evenly spaced with the other letters on his.
 

Gets more interesting with the more research we do :thumbsup:
