Got out for a few hours and dug a ton of junk, one Jeff nickel and a King George II half penny. Not in great shape but better than most I have found. If my eyes are right I can barely make out 1746 with a loupe. I would gladly take this on every hunt. Happy hunting and stay warm out there. IMG_0003.JPG IMG_0004.JPG

Knowing how difficult it can be to find a copper that is even identifiable, at least in my area, I think that coin is in terrific shape. I would be very happy with that one. Congrats!

I could do that for you, Tommy but I'm afraid I would be stopped at the Michigan border locked up and quarantined.

Very cool. I imagine you will attempt a careful cleaning hopefully without losing the date...

I have already done that with Andres pencils. That is how I was able to get a date.
