Some oldies this week...ground was not kind to them

[93vector]

Found these 4 over this week in a couple different spots.
Found the first one (both front and back shown) today. Pretty sure it's a KG of some type, can see REX
Pretty sure the 2nd one is also a KG, can see III to right of bust
No idea on the final 2
Sure wish the ground would have treated them a little better!

Thanks for looking

Sweet finds
That first one looks like 1753 not sure but I can see the 17 for sure! I would love to see that one when its cleaned up.

Congrats

Well you are definitely at a good old site, just a shame the condition of the coppers, but nothing can be done about that, but at least you have rough ideas on what they are which is better than finding completely worn out ones that are heavily corroded.

Nice finds.
Do you plan to leave them as is or will you try and clean?
Just curious.

I might give them a peroxide bath.....can't hurt much!
