    I do not have any Colonial coins.... Always hoped to find one metal detecting - the area I live in was settled in the mid 1600's and continuously occupied through the years. No luck so far. Cheers, RickO

    I do have a piece of colonial silver

    I dont have any. I think you should deduct 20 years or so from the 300. Massachusetts has been going wonky for about the last 20 years.

    Probably more than 20 years @gumby1234 :)
    .
    The changes on the map are from 1630 to 1930. So it deducts 92 years from today. :)

    @1630Boston Well I was referring to Mass in general not to the map. Imagine if the Back bay sunk back into swampland LOL.

    With the exception of the front left, these sterling silver beer mugs, tankards, and canns are all pre-revolutionary war.

    right front - John Payne, 1774
    right middle - James Stamp, 1774
    right back - Jacob Marsh, 1770
    left back - James Cramer, 1775
    left middle - Francis Spilsbury, 1740
    left front - James Phipps, 1793
    Center - Ephraim Brasher, 1770

    Awesome!!!

    This is one of my favorites, though it's technically the first "Federal" coin now according to PCGS :)
