Canal Coppers

[BuckHill]

Went out with my brother today to a 1820 river canal lock. We hunted a hill above the lock where the Irish laborers probably camped during construction. Dug these 2 Maidens also 2 clad Rosie's. My brother has an Xp Duess and I have the ORX.

Very nice. Kinda hard to see much detail. That place will have more to give up. Well done.

Congrats!

Awesome finds! Those look like they've been in the water wa while.

Crusty and rusty but good job getting dirty. There has to be more to find. Keep swinging.

Great job! I’d try there again.

As with about half the large cents we find I could not get a date from the one I found yet. One side always seems to be the worst and this one was the obverse.

They where not in the water but on a hillside with about an inch of snow

Oh you poor pathetic east coast soul. You have to content with some LCs that aren't candy-apple clean and nice sometimes ? OH THE INDIGNITY !
