Nice. I found one similar in Arizona this past winter for the Maricopa Couty fair, I think it was 1911.

Congratulations on finding that beauty!

 

[Finder Bear]

Sweet! That’s beautiful. I assume that is a detector find? Do you have any pics from before you cleaned it up? How did you clean it. It looks like new!

It was found with the equinox . I have like top soil dirt and it preserves brass, copper and silver really well . I am hunting a small town that is seven residents away from being a ghost town . It has been detected hard over the years and is known for night hawks and trespassers . The coins are pretty scarce so it is mostly relics and you work hard for them .I soaked in mineral oil over night and used a tooth pick to remove grime . I do this on IHP , brass, tokens and nickles also . This is my second fair badge . My first badge is older I believe , no town or names / date and had a small bit of damage . It also did not clean up like this one did .

This is really a very nice old relic. The fact it is complete is really something.

 

[Trezurehunter]

That is one very nice looking relic. It cleaned up great.

 

[Hawks88]

Nice save. You did a great job cleaning it. Looks awesome. Congrats

 

[Silvermonkey]

What a terrific find. I'm really impressed with its condition. The soil has been very kind to that relic.

 

[Finder Bear]

They both came out really well after cleaning! Good thing you have gentle soil!
