Phila. Meeting House, when skill won't do it, luck will, 1820's LC find
You know what they say, "with a little help from my friends"
Vino called me last night and offered to take me with him for a short hunt at the Meeting House in Old Philadephia, I'm so lucky to have a friend like him who lets me share these awesome sites that he acquires like stinkin Lincolons. I'll let him tell you about his finds, but his best today was another permission that the guy says, "Iv'e been waiting for you" AGAIN! Ha, little more to it, but another great site for him to hunt. I dug allot of trash, was making my way back to the car when George came over to show me his cool finds and ask if I found any LC's. Only thing I had was two tokens from the same hole, we started messing around with the two machines comparing Deus/AT Pro when I wandered off a few feet and got one of the millions of 80 81 hits at two inches, bent over to dig another stinkin Lincoln when out pops a LC. I will post cleaned up photos of it later tonight when I get time to clean it. Actually I'm trying a soak in distilled water for a few hours to see how it cleans up from my laboratory.
Thanks to George and his great sites I managed to find another LC. I have been trying on my side of the river for permissions, but they don't say "we have been waiting for you" when I walk in. I'll get some, just need to try a little harder.
Enjoy these pix until after my cleanup, HH and GL everyone!
