    Finds - 8/29/10

    Went back to my favorite park early this morning for a few hours. Cherry picked the deep signals. Found a very worn 192? Merc and a 1944 Washington. Both coins have some weird discoloration/soil damage that doesn’t clean off with baking soda which is unusual for this park. Also found 3 wheaties.

    Nice Silver Finds !

    Is odd on the Discoloration,
    I see that every so often.
    Maybe Chemicals or Pine Trees ?

    Or driveway ?
    discriminate out Spike TV and American Diggers !

    Merc was at 7 inches
    Quarter was at 10 inches
    Amost all of the oldies at this park are over 6 inches - past the halfway point on the Etrac depth guage.
