I am currently polling all the metal detecting forums and metal detecting c= lubs in the Northeast in trying to get a distribution of the Jersey Colonia= ls found by metal detectors. This will take a month or two to compile but = so far, I have Jersey's found in Va, Pa, Del, NY, Conn, RI Ontario and NJ. Here in South Jersey, my son and I have found 4 Vermonts, in Atlantic/Cumbe= rland County. We have attributed them, of course I just posted the RR16, ha= ve a RR21 and my son has the Vt Immune Columbia and a common variety. Connecticut coppers are the second most common found of the state colonials= . I have friends in Mass, Vt, and upstate NY and the hardest coin to find is = any NY copper.

Does the pattern of coin finds confirm this? I.e. are most finds in=20 Vermont Vermonts, most finds in Connecticut Connecticuts, etc.?
