Minelab Safari with SEF 8x6; coming soon: FORS Gold+
Hi folks,

I was able to go back to the silver schoolyard for about an hour and managed my fourth silver coin from this spot...a 1942 P war nickel, which also makes it my 20th silver with the Safari since buying it in April.

Also, on Friday I made it out to the SLQ lot for a couple hours and managed my third IH from this site, but it's in horrible condition. At least most of the date is readable...189_, which puts me back in the 1800s once again. ;D

HH,

Ray

That Indianlooks like it will clean up with a couple of hot peroxide baths.
Nice recoveries!
 
Thanks folks!

tym, I've already put it through a couple hot peroxide baths. Whatever that stuff is caked on the coin, it ain't coming off!

I'm reading 1891 pretty clearly
 
Man Ray! You have been kicking some major butt! Nice job on the silver!
 
Thanks again, everyone!

alpha, you're right. I just looked it over with a magnifying glass and it is an 1891.

Matt, I ain't done yet. I've something new to post. :wink:
