Looks like a quality weekend. Congrats. That time of year that decent detecting days are in short supply.

Finding any old nickels where you can easily see the date is a great day.

Nice coins buddy! Have you ever tried mineral oil on your coppers? It's just a little more pure and not quite as dark
