New spot productive, decent so far...

JW15 · Aug 9, 2011

Hey everyone,
Got out today for a bit before getting washed and hit a spot I haven't tried yet and was pleased with the results. First target was a toasted,holed large cent (probably a Draped Bust due to leaf and berry wreath pattern) and I also managed a typical buckle,a draw pull(?)and a tiny ornate case of some kind(probably women's makeup) that has a ray pattern with little jewel in the middle. Tomorrow I may go back for round two but not before I pick up my new Xterra 705!!! I love new toys, don't you? :icon_biggrin:

Thanks for looking and always swing for the fences! :sunny:

Thanks Hogge, that IS the after pic unfortunately. I used hydro and I should have known better because it was thin when I pulled it and in harsh soil conditions. The black patina came off immediately in the hydro taking the detail with it

. I can just barely make out part of the "ONE CENT" on the reverse and parts of the wreath. I pulled a fried wheatie as well and a clad quarter that was black and orange.
