1818 Large Cent, Er.. WWF Token ??

[steelheadwill]

Hi all
Had to comment on the Matron, she is one tough looking Liberty Bust
Pulled her from the foundation I got the love token from, same amount of time,
about 2 hrs pulling iron & junk, then a goody
some whatsit iron pieces, oxshoes, & a knife blade
I don't think it was out of the bank long, just weakly struck..
The decision whether and how to clean an old copper is always a tough one for me, I'm happy with the results this time
(of course it looks much better in hand than the photos)
My last 4 coppers were half cents, this largie sure feels heavy!
I gave my etracs stock coil a shot here, I'll tell you it doesn't compare with the Coiltek Joey for picking thru junk.
If you hunt in trash, you need this coil !

Mike at www.woodlanddetectors.com is the man to see.

Some other 20th C items dug out of a wooded lot behind an abandoned home,
(no digging in the lawn!) gotta love 'RopeMan'
Thanks for looking! HH Everyone

Nice going Herbie - love that LC. They look great coming out of the woods. My plowed field coppers are pretty much worthless. Keep up the good work ..... Bill

She does look happier now
Still Beefy though, I would cross the street if she was approaching me
Bill D., I'm trying to get onto some plowed fields, seems the farmers up here are liability concerned
Those field silvers make up for the toasted coppers.
Thanks all! Keep on diggin
