Nice. Always a good day in my book when a wheat or two pops out of the ground. Think I got spoiled the first time I ever detected I found a 1919 wheat. They will come up more often now. Especially at an old drive in area.

A 1st on a hunt is always a good hunt. I've never tried the peroxide method. Only mineral oil on cooper coins.
