So yesterday I got to my House of Coppers for a 90 minute evening hunt. The day before I was there for a little bit with my buddy Wayne and he scored the 23rd copper from the site a KG. Yesterday I got a very scratchy and all over the place high tone. Numbers bounced from 8-46 up to 12-46. Number were all over the place but that is because I found around 8 rusty nails before the good target. My hole was probably 18" wide and almost 10" deep. The last scoop of dirt came out and the coin was in it. Nailed a 1798 Draped bust large Cent. Love finding DB coppers. Later I though I might have a half dime in the hole turned out to be a button with a ton of gold gilt front and back on it. The Db is my 50th career copper and the 24th copper from this site. Just doesn't get much better. Thanks for looking and HH!!!

Man that is freakin nuts how many coppers have come out of that place. I still remember your 9 copper day( I believe it was 9) and thinking "wow 9 coppers out of 1 property...that's epic. Here we are, 15 coppers later.....
 
Wow Thats a great find! Just gotta get some bleach and a wire brush on it now.....

I am not cleaning this puppy up any further. Don't want to lose what detail is left...LOL

I wish I had ONE large cent... :( congrats.

You should come across one in Michigan. Maybe not as much as here in Delaware but I am sure they are there...
