Back to The Red River with a Trick up my sleeve

[Hardy]

After the kids were packed off to school, I whent back to the bluff area that over looks the Red up here. This time I braught with me a sodd shovel and Edger. after scanning the area near a large American Elm Tree and pulling out the trash, I removed about a 6 ft square section of wild grass and weed , ect. It payed Off!! I recieved soft Target signal's in about a 1 ft sq. Area and pulled these Upper Canada Bank Tokens and 1 Lower Canada token! I cleaned them with a light acid salution and used oil as a stablizer. Geuss where I am off tomorrow !

I would like to add that whenever diluting water with acid always add the acid to the water. Remember this by noticing that it's in alphebetical order. If done the other way the water will sit on top of the acid because it is less dense and create a plane of contact where the water and acid are mixing. This is an exothermic reaction and if not dispersed (like by adding the acid to the water) it might cause an explosion.

Here's a better explanation:

Also, great coins!
