So my wife says......."Can't you just go somewhere today!"........It's all I needed. We had discovered a virgin hole with a total of 4 previous coin finds. Mostly slugs but all Georgies including a farthing. Found 5 more within 3 hours, including the 2 Connecticuts. The one in worse shape is an M-34-ff.1. The other, In better shape, is giving me fits. So I sent some pics to C-4 to see if they can ID. Anyone here wanna try? Usually I'm pretty good but just don't have access to ALL the varieties. Came out pretty good with the peroxide bath.

Pretty good detail on both sides; always nice to see a state copper come out like that!
 

Congrats on your 20th
 

Super find. Congratulations :icon_thumright:
 

Beautiful coppers- Congrats fellow Mass hunter!
 

Very very nice CT copper! I found a 2 of the same style but haven't been able to attribute them to the exact versions. 20 is really impressive!
 

Those are two nice ones, congrats!
 

Nice coppers Hogge, glad you could get out. Spent the morning sniffing out cellar holes in Peru, but got skunked. Hope to find a CT this spring!
 

Sweet old coppers, congrats! :occasion14:
 

Holy smokes those are some cool coins my town was founded in 1826 so I got a Garage full of empty buckets. Those coppers look really awesome Gotta keep doing whatever you do to have the better 7/8s tell you to go out lol Well done Tommy
 

21 Connecticut coppers, that is fantastic. That one is still on my bucket list and probably will stay on the list forever considering my location. Stay safe and keep swingin.
