Only had a few mins to hunt my new permission. Was trying for easy signals.

This last piece is really kind of strange.
I wish I had a "before" pic because this
thing looked exactly like one of those really old
coppers that have been buried a long time in a wet area.

The green corrosion was REALLY thick! I didn't see any indication
that it was a coin and couldn't see ANY detail. Nothing after soaking
in oil either. So, I hooked it up to electrolysis for a while.

The detail reads "DeZurik FIG# 118S"

The only reference I could find has to do with some sort
of knife valve. :dontknow:

It appears to be copper/bronze/brass and like I said, the
corrosion says it was buried a long, long time. :dontknow:

Anyway, they can't all be "good" hunts.
Thanks for peeking!

Yep, this hobby always has a way to make me say, Whad-I-Find!?!? LOL
Anyone ever see a tag like this one?
 

DeZurik ? is that in DeSwitzerlend ?

only uneducated guess on your ufo is it is the washer that goes in here

hole is too small to fit where water would flow through.

cool you got out !
according to Harrisburg we all should be building arks up here in PA :(
 

You did good when only hunting for a few minutes. And you do a lot of work trying to identify objects.
 

Way to go Whadi. Sorry, cant help on the disk I.D.
 

Cherry picking is the way to go when you don't have much time. Glad to see it turned up some interesting goodies!
 

Nice to see another post Whadi. Is this the pernmission where the friendly old man invited you? Were you short on time due to chatting with him?

Naw, L.D. I just had stuff to do and swung by there after the rain and before dark. We chatted too. He said he has another place for me too. This place is already great! It gave me three VERY nice silvers already. If I don't find anything else, it already is a successful hunt and a new contact! Can't get much better than that, eh.

Thanks.
 

Hope you can get back there soon and get rest of the goodies
 

A couple of interesting finds! Congratualtions! :occasion14:
