COLONIALS AND A WALKER

Tuesday was day two working the 1840's house. Got a strong 12/45 at 8", dug a strange coin that I had to Google on the Iphone. It's a Nova Caesarea 1787, it is a New Jersey colonial penny.

After my 1787 daze settled I worked back across the front yard, another soild 12/45/46 at 6", King George II, it dates to 1730's-1750's, no visible date. Crazy!

Worked back across the yard and found a 1939 Canadian silver quarter, at the end ot the yard 10 feet from the "NOVA" another 12/45, an 1845 Large Cent in nice condition.

Today I only had an hour to hunt and worked a cluster of old summer camps that are not used anymore. Property dates to the 20's, I have searched areas there before and only found clad and some wheats. Today 4 wheats and a Walking Liberty Half, my first half.

That Jersey is very nice. Good for you
 
A friend of mine who is not a member has been working on a study on the circulation of NJ coppers. He has plotted over 500 coins but only one other from Vermont. He asked for info about your find. He only needs the county and state. The other was from Orange Co. He says yours is u-33 variety. If you prefer I'll send you his email
 
Thanks Neil,

It was Grand Isle County, Vermont. A string of islands connected on the north by Canada. So Mine is a Maris 33-U? I understand there were a bunch of dies used and they are all different. Had to go to Google immediately to figure out what it was.

Thanks for the information!

Good luck, hope you find yours soon!
