Went out today to try the 17" coil on my ctx.. Had not tried it out yet. Had a quick hunt but for me a good one. I dug the 2 wheats, Both 1921 s but one still had a little luster. Can't remember digging any like that. And I never noticed the they actually have VDB on them on the neck of Lincoln.. the other wheat is UGly but I will give it a good home

Then right before I was going home I got a solid shallow 12/37. I literally said to myself "ok lets dig this ZINCOLN" at 3" popped out the Indian. I was surprised to say the least since almost every Indian I have dug has been a 12/34.. Any ways I will take it! SO another reason to dig the zinc pennies..

Sorry for the cloudy spots. Took pics through magnifier..

That 1921 S is impeccable! Might be worth a pretty penny[emoji6]
