Pieces on unidentified copper

Post by D0gma64 »

These two pieces of copper with matching marks were found several miles apart. I would assume that they are off a fairly common item.

H - see photos
A - Both found in pasture fields at about 6" depth
M - see photos
M - XP Deus II - Jethro
Y - Seem to be copper, but have matching markings on both sides
