Got out with Fast Frank for a few hours this afternoon.hit a cellar hole we had hit in the past.
I got a iron grape shot i believe :icon_scratch: a broken trigger guard i think :icon_scratch: a 1930 wheatie,a huge D-type buckle and my first large copper.King George II in really rough shape.i didn't peroxide it because i think the crust of dirt is the only thing holding what detail is left.
*** I ended up using peroxide after all! *** didn't help much but didn't hurt it eiether....it is what it is :laughing9:

Nice find, Dave. The King George held up better than some of our field coppers. Keep hunting CT hard!

Ive dug them in a lot worse condition then that. Always good to get a ID, Even better to get a date. Keep up the good work HMN.
