Had a chance to go to a place that has been pounded before. Got lucky and pulled out two coppers. I'm trying to clean but I don't think its going to work. The Large cent was sounding like a clad quarter on the surface and then this pops out only an inch under the ground! I couldn't believe it!

Wow, it looks like alot of detail is there under that crust. How do you plan to preserve it? Great finds. BONGO
 
No matter what condition they are in, they are still top-notch recoveries. :thumbsup: Yup, that is what I am after. :icon_sunny:

Try soaking in olive oil for a couple weeks to losen crud and lightly remove - avoid all out scrubbing/etc. as it will remove detail,

nice finds,

HH
 
way to go Gary! the large cents are popping up left and right up there!
 
Great finds. I hope they clean up for you.
