I got out today with Lee and Jim from coinhunting.net to do some hunting over at Heekin Park here in Muncie. Boy do you have to work to find coins out there! I did manage a few goodies on the day though. I got my first ever clad half dollar, an 83D. I also got a copper ring that was fairly deep, so it has some age to it. And I got 2 green wheats, 1918 and 1919. It seems that half of all wheats I find that are older than 1940 are from 1919. Then I managed my oldest Buffalo nickel ever, a 1919. It was about 9 inches deep, but rang up as a solid, repeatable nickel signal, so I just had to dig it. The date is nicely raised, but you can't tell that in the picture. The other side is all green and crusty, as shown in the picture... any ideas on how to clean that? I don't want to just start scrubbing and clean away the buffalo since it does appear to have some good detail.
I ordered some nic-a-lene nickel cleaner the other day to clean up my no date shield nickels... should I used that on it? I'm not too concerned about any numismatic value here, I just like having the coins and the prettier the better.... kind of how I like my ladies
The little buckle reads: "Boston Garter" and "Velvet Grip" Anyone have any ideas? I only kept it because it was rather deep and is still in great condition... I assume it's worthless... but I figured it wouldn't hurt to try my luck on here with.
Jim got 2 injuns out there and Lee got a 1913 wheatie and a 1965 5 Duetchland something or other? It's about the size of a half dollar.
Well here are some pics...

it was on a garter belt to hold up a womans stockings. Way prior to panty hoses. Maybe from 1930 through 1955 is my guess. The clip would of had a fastener that had a round end that would be pushed through the wide part of the clip and slid down holding ths stockings in place. Cool items, even cooler when a guy got a little peak of a ladies stocking top and the garter clip
