Weather here has eased up a bit, only 90 or so, low humidity, nice. Been able to get out for a few hours each of the last few days. We've had a lot of rain lately and the ground is pretty saturated. Lots of good signals to chase with the new F75se.
Got a '38 merc. '46 rosie & a '51 Washington. These silver coins came out of the ground with some sort of grey coating on them that would not come off with the usual soft brush and water. Had to put them in the old tumbler. I know,
But they sure came out shiny. The rosie and the Washington must have been lost shortly after being minted. Hardly any wear. Also found wheats 1919-26-28-41-41s-42-50s & 2 53's. Lots of clad. Thanks for looking!!!
