long day
stared out at a few different places
rained
lost my cheapo knee pads
had to go buy a new set splurged and got a good carpenters pair like them lots
ended up relic hunting at a dump thats an easy hike close to the road nothing stellar
had to go pick up the lady at work at 1 pm
so dropped her off then headed out to"the barber shop"
rain had stopped and sun poped out for a few minutes so i had to make a break for it!!!
this spot has been pretty good for coins (tons of trash)
got there at 2 pm
had 1 hour and 45 minutes to get it dug(had to pick up the kid from work)
at 3.44 i got one more "good signal" at about 3 inchs
it was a little spotty but good 3 ways after X'ing it
dug down hit a 2 inch root right off
pulled out the root saw
the the signal POPED
with a slight broken to the side of it
first this poped out(hence the broken tone)

i was like "OH DRAT"
then these sweeties were laying in the "whole" (hence the solid tone)
then the cell rang and had to go home
talk about at the wire!!!!

Fantastic find! I have to agree with an earlier post, that you should keep the purse and show it with the coins in a
display case.

I would make this suggestion, do what Mirage posted. I would not wash them in hot water or any water if you are taking it out of your faucet. It is soft water and has SALT in it. BAD for IH's. If you have to wash them, use Mirages suggestions or use distilled water. I usually don't wash my IH's, usually they turn to crap. Your coins don't even have any green on them, so they are already good.

Hope you have a Great Metal Detecting New Year. Ringfinder

I use an ultrasonic jewelry cleaner. Removes most surface stuff very well and quickly. I'm surprised this hasn't been mentioned more ofter in TN.
