The king decided to make an appearance today

[mainer]

Hit the same field that I got the William and Mary coin the other nite. And not 10 feet away from where I dug that coin, I dug a KG. I only took a picture of the front not much left of it on either side. It was a slow hot afternoon. Only dug this coin and another blank mystery copper. But looking forward to getting back there again.

A bit of a flake but George II is always good to see in the dirt!

 

[mainer]

He is kinda flakey isnt he?

 

[civilman1]

So that's where "smoothy's" come form There's alway's tommorrow

 

[CMDiamonddawg]

That is an extra crispy KG II & the picture of it is very cool !!! 8) 8) Nice one mainer

 

[gmanlight]

Looks like he is about to loose his head.

 

[njnydigger]

Must've been a hard day for King George as well. Seems he's falling to pieces over it

Good digs

 

[mainer]

He probably wont make it long, even in the display case. Just goes to show if I would have rubbed the coin in the field it wouldnt have been able to be ID.

You could treat it but would be more hassel than it's worth. Just find a better one next time out.

I wonder if you could pull the BuckleBoy "glue trick" to save the flake's like he does his pewter Still alot of facial detail really if you look at it.....Try it,what do you have to lose?

I actually have a pewter button I have to do, and was thinking of trying it. Like you said theres nothing to lose.
