Man it was a hot weekend most of my searching was done under the trees Saturday I ended up with a 1905 V nick and one wheat, Sunday was better my take for the day a dateless buff 1943 silver nick and a 1884 V missed a key date by one year, also a 1907 IH and a cool led toy Indian the best find of the day was a NY seal coat button in very nice condition that's my second one..

thanks Erik were can I buy this aluminum jelly?

I got some Naval jelly at my local Kroger / Publix (Supermarket) but did not see Aluminium jelly.
Likely Home Depot , Lowe's , ACE is were it can be found.

Did use Naval jelly on my NY Button but recall it being a "Just for a few seconds , then soapy water rinse , it was a Slow Process" Think Naval Jelly is a bit Stronger than Aluminum Jelly ... So I would go with that.
