another 1786 but can't read it grrrr...

[Horst]

I had to scratch the itch and went out even the pastures are hard as concrete.

Found another 1786 coin. Fairly large in diameter 24 mm.

I just can't read it and that drives me crazy......

Very Nice!!! Congrats!!!

Nice old save, hope you can successfully clean it up some, congratulations

That might be as good as its going to get. Your down to the clean copper in some spots. I hate these finds. You know you found something good but you're forbidden to know what it is.

Cool Find!
Photograph it with single source, low-angled lighting.
Should get more detail off it, that way....

Those are my best/worst finds not knowing. I have succumb to a Brillo pad and totally ruined everything. I’m nuts with these finds.

 

[Horst]

I had the coin in the tumbler over night and by first look it made it a little worse. Oh lord I hate and love those finds......damned farmers using manure fertilizing fields and pastures which destroys the metal except for silver. But silver coins are very rare - only found 3 in 7 months of detecting. Still learning the Nox 800 but gettin' better at it.

Forgot to mention Andre's Pencils
these are great for cleaning coins, that might have, possibly,
some detail remaining, and for cleaning relics of different metals.
(I'm not getting anything, by promoting these)
