Default 1785 Nova Constellatio Copper

Hello all!

I got out friday night and nabbed that KG II (Young George might be 1737)... and headed back to this site this am...

This site has been great for me... US Half Cent, Draped Bust LC, 1926 Matron Head US Large Cent, 6 Indians, 1902 Barber, 1950 Roosie, and a fist full of wheat backs...

So this am I was back just after the dew was drying up...

I got a few wheat back's early... Then is was fast back to back Merc's 1935 and 1937...





I had 3 wheat pennies and 2 merc's and was about to call it to head back for NFL kick off @ 1pm... I move over to near where I recoverd the 1864 Indian Head on friday night... and got a blip of a 12/42 signal burried on the 12" depth meter...

The red handle of the Lesche was under the edge of the hole... So that is 12+ inches... 14 inches ??

Anywho... Here it is...





The reverse... No so good... but look like Large US and Pointed Rays...



The Totals:



HH ALL!
Paul
