Been a good month for hunting, started slow, and then sped up. The first site was where they drained an old Duck pond out here at one of the local parks. Got to the site, and while detecting, found the 1900 Morgan on the surface. It was encrusted with 100 years of duck poop, and it really did a number on it. When I first started to clean it up, you could see the front and back clear as day. Then the coin itself started to flake away. Nothing I could do could save it. The two Washington quarters are in the same condition. The third is an unidentifiable quarter, which I need to do some serious electrolysis upon it. The buffet token was at a site that has been hit for years. Dug near a large ant hill, It was the only find at that site. The Buff's and the cut-in-half dime was found at a second park, where everyone but myself managed to score gold rings.The last photos are at an undisclosed site. (Sorry) First day out, I dug my first ever token that is stated "saloon" Sadly, it's in the token base, but location is unknown. My buddy got a baggage claim, some Mercs, and what appears to be either a counter-stamped token, or some sort of "practice token". It has multiple "Good-For's, stamped on it. I've yet to see it in person to give an accurate description.The last is my first instate Barber Half. Dug one years ago when I went to Keene New Hampshire, It's in remarkable shape, considering that we are digging this stuff out of an old trash/burn dump. That coin made up for months of sub-par hunting. Enjoy.
