My best find ever...

[Gribnitz]

Well, only been detecting since July of last year but it is going to be hard to top this in my area. I found this last month.


Here is what it looked like when I cleaned off most of the dirt when I got home.

Here it is after sending it off to be restored

You can send me an email and I will send you link to the guy that does restoration work. Rather not post it here since it is another metal detecting site.

Outstanding restoration on that plate. I didn't even know that that could be done. Great find.
