Found with the AT-Gold

[GroundScanner]

Hi guys , found this yesterday with the ATgold w/the nel 5/9 coil. It is a Conn colonial 1787 copper but the date is chopped off and only shows the very top of the date. I know there are a lot of varieties. Not sure which one this is. Can anyone help. Thanks , GS

Thanks Jim, It was about 4 inches deep under a 2 inch root on a hillside. Also got a flat button. GS

That really is a nice find! It looks to be in great shape. Copper doesn't hold up like silver does.

Ok guys , I checked it out and it is a Draped Bust left ( left is for looking to the left with left side of the face ) I think that's what it means . Connecticut Colonial Copper. I seen a coin like this going for $1,879. On the big auction . Does anyone have any good cleaning methods ? I would like to make it a little cleaner. Thanks , GS

Take it to a professional coin dealer and ask so that you don't affect the value.
