Cleaned A Cookie Coin & More From The Shark Pit!

[rtde3]

I spent some time at The Shark Pit yesterday but it wasn't my best day. Still I did find a few items.
One of the things I found was another piece from the old cash registers I found last year. (Click here to see that post) http://forum.treasurenet.com/index.p...c,44971.0.html and here. http://forum.treasurenet.com/index.p...11377.new.html
It needed to be put in the Electrolysis tank so I broke the tank out for the first time this year. I figured while I was cleaning the regester part I would put 2 of the 3 cookie coins I found in there also. (the 3rd one was too thin)
Below you will see the before and after pictures of the regester part and the coins! I left the part in the tank for about 2 hours. Then I put the coins in for a few minutes while I was cleaning the part in the wash sink near by.
The first cookie coin turned out to be a 1918 Wheat penny. It crumbled when I tried to clean the back. :P The next coin turned out to be a 1910 Barber dime! The front crust came off pretty good as you can see by the one picture.
Other things I found are a big Dolphin or Porpoise vertebrae with nice marking on both sides (see pic)
9 Sharks teeth, 1 stingray tooth, a brass slug, 3 cookie coins, a lead bottle seal that says "ABB Washington DC", a cuff link (I have found many with this same design), a toy wagon wheel and other Misc. stuff. Thanks for looking!

That's like a double thrill . . . . first you dig it not knowing what it is, then you get to reveal it in the tank Very nice setup with the shelves and old bottles. Can we see some more pics of your storage and cleaning area there?

Also, I have been reading Shark Pit posts for a while now . . . . where is it?

I am a Left Coast surf hunter . . . .

Wow! that's great, the shark pit is always very good to you. How did you build the tank? I've been wanting to build one but was not sure how to go about it.
