I hit two parks yesterday. One for about 5 hours and the other for about 1 hour. Got three silver. Two mercs icluding a 1917 that I riced pretty bad, 1 rosie, and 7 & 1/4 wheats. I thought the 1/4 wheat was just a cut wheatie until I noticed the face later on. The coil has been passing over some oldies lately.

thats awesome! You should definatly keep that wheatie! :)
 
nice mercs and who is that guy ???
 
Nice finds Randy. That cut wheatie of the face is cool :thumbsup:
 
Never seen a cut out Wheatie before, that's a cool find.
 
That trimmed wheatie is great. :thumbsup: I've never seen one like that before.
 
Randy, Nice cutout and nice scratch, We all do it.HH
 
Congrats on the successful hunt!! :thumbsup:

Nice cut-out! Never saw that before.

Now I have something to do with all my duplicate wheats in winter when the ground freezes! ;D
 
Electrolysis should get those mercs clean. ;D Nice wheat, that's an original piece of art !! :coffee2:

Keep @ it and HH!!
 
Thanks Detectingfreak! I thought that it was an unusal find.

Thanks! I almost didn't dig it because it was shallow. If it hadn't been mixed in with trash I would have passed it up. Got lucky!

Thanks kimsdad! I've never seen one either. It might be fun to give it a try. I'd probably butcher the face ;D

Thanks MUD(S.W.A.T.)! I like to wrap silver in tinfoil and soak in water with salt added. You have to do a little touch up afterwards but they come out pretty clean.
