2nd IH 1888 and 1919 s wheatie (easy come easy go on the IH's)
Tonight went back to the site I got my first IH since they had tore up the ground a little more. Got the second IH 1888 and a 1919 s wheatie along with 13 clad cents.
I would say there is more there, but the concrete parking lot is closing in on my fast. Loads of trash to dig tonight. The torn up houses were corraled to the spot where the IH's were found, so was surprised to find anything but trash.
Sorry no pic on these 2. It's difficult to say how they are going to turn out since I have not tried to soak one of them before. It seems the IH might be corroding on the edge, but hard to tell really.
THanks for the read,

Going to try the long distilled soak and see what results I can get with it.
Is there any problems with soaking the IH with the wheaties?
Both IH if they clean up some appear as though they will have green patina. So will soaking the wheaties with them in Distilled change that coloration?
