Bounty Hunter 3300 now, but looking for recommendations

Lo and behold, I pulled this guy out of the little stream down a hill from my house. I'm officially hooked!

I'd love to have some patch work done. Any thoughts on trying to fix it up some?

Militia buckle , little crusty ... but .... Very nice !
 
Very Nice!!!! Congrats!!!!
 
Great relic to start your metal detecting obsession, congrats! :occasion14:
 
Amazing find. I don't know what that is but I know a good find when I see it!
 
Mr Robert McDaniels can fix that up for real good. He works fast and is very reasonable.
 
Very nice plate. I leave my items as they came out of the ground, but everyone is different. If it were mine, I would display it as is. The imperfections give it character. Good luck though if you decide to have it restored.
 
that's awesome. if it were me, I'd leave it as is
 
Sweet find! Congratulations on that one.
 
You think your hooked now just wait lol. Nice find. Tommy
 
Do you have his contact info? Thx
 
Hmm...I like your advice to keep it real..
 
I like it as it is....super cool plate
 
I wouldnt do anything to it. especially being your first good find.
 
Don't see an SNY very often. Nice. I will say that more than a few of the dug ones I've seen have looked like yours. Wonder if the maker scrimped on the quality of the edges, as I've seen a higher percentage of these in rough shape. I don't have one, by the way - nice job.
