THIS MORNINGS OLD COINS AND CW FINDS....

[lovedigging]

The weather finally broke last and cooled off a little bit last night. I decided to get out this morning before going to work and see what I could find. There was a field I had gone to last fall that I was hoping to hit when the grass was cut. When I got there this morning, I was a little too late. Most of the grass was already 2 feet tall, but I was there and determined to dig. My first hole, I uncovered 2 coins; an 1866 5-cent piece and another that I am unable to read the date other than it's 1800 something. After that I dug two 58 bullets. A few minutes later I hit a signal on my DFX that SCREAMED. Only a couple of inches deep I pulled up an 1898 V nickle, then a 1903, 1910, and finally another 1898, all in the same hole. Needless to say, I was pretty excited! As I headed back to my truck, I hit another good signal and when I dug it, it was an 1817 one-cent piece. Not bad for a quick hours worth of swinging before hitting the job.

I didn't do to much to them. Two of them looked pretty good so I put them in hydrogen peroxide and on a candle warmer for about a half hour. I was shocked at how well they had cleaned up when I pulled them out. Thanks for the reply...

Great bunch of coins. The "V"s cleaned up really nice. I cant really see the large cent (my monitor sucks) but it was in awesome shape when I saw it earlier, no cleaning needed, I think it is in the best shape of any I have seen come out of the ground.

Keep an eye on that spot, if the grass is already 2' high then they will probably be making hay on it again soon, then swoop in there and find that GOLD coin that must be there; with that range of dates an pretty obviously a "pocket drop", who knows what else will be there.
