Went out today to hit some ball fields but baseball being in full force and the fields full, I hit an old picnic areas instead. I am sure glad I did.
I dug a 1960D Rosie, a1941 Merc, and my first IHP and 2nd induction to the 1800 club.
An 1890 IHP.
When I dug the IHP, it was coated black but I could see the faint outline of the Chief on the front and just a hint of the wreath on the back but thought that was just wishful thinking.
After about 2 hours and 45 cents in CLAD later and all the pop tabs one can handle I headed home
I soaked the IHP in boiling hydrogen peroxide and cleaned with salt which really brought back some detail.
This was a very good day for me.
