8.( 8.( 8.( I prefer the PatIna to all other shots

Great pics and info on cleaning.

 

[silver]

Right on RJ, Patina rules hey !
Although, if we do take the patina off( accidentally ) and patiently wait for about 50 years, it should all be looking quite proper again by then.
Don't weep RJ, they were both scratched up coins in the first place.

bi carb is enough for me, and thats only to get dates. I just like finding them though, never look at them.

 

[silver]

I just want them ,... look at them again as I clean them, or pack them away( treasure is treasure after all )

It might not be old but it's still a great find Silver. I doubt there'd many of these out there.

Forgot to mention this old find today ,... I had it soaking in water.
Gave it a quick brushing off.

(Maybe not the same brand)
can still get brand new old ones Mb, I was happy getting it at an old school site under a tree, where the kids must have been playing round the roots of an old weeping fig tree, and I have permission to hunt at anytime, so I'm going back again soon.

Got out this morning for a little hunt.
Needn't have bothered really,
RKTs pocket goblin curse bought the BB ratio up to 50 50.

Bloody six all. 8)

And not a silver in sight at all ,... Curses. .............. :lol:

 

[silver]

Got out for most of the day today(between school runs).
Not much about. :|
I scored a dozen 1c'ers though !

Lucky i even got the 5c piece, it was in the hole with a 1c and I found it first with the propointer ,... I was just looking for silvers really.

 

[rocketaroo]

Hmmm, I wonder if he has cursed you S?
Little meany he is lol Look into his eyes, and beg forgiveness?

 

[silver]

Careful RKT, IT BACKFIRED ON YOU ONCE, I mean, who finds a bb cashe ( honestly )(ha). :lol:

Careful RKT, IT BACKFIRED ON YOU ONCE, I mean, who finds a bb cashe ( honestly )(ha). :lol:

its a little bit ironic, dont you think? Just remember Silver, he is on my side, because I rescued him from his earthen tomb

 

[silver]

Sorry for laughing RKT, baahahaha. :lol:
edit ( meant in the nicest possible way )

 

[LonelySilver]

I guess its better than a dozen pull tabs

Scored big time today.
Went for a late Arvo hunt !
got a couple of rubbish targets, and then came across a target that would fit in about a metre square of dirt that was just about all high tone, but scanned funny in pinpoint, there were a few targets separate on the outside so i dug a couple of them and they turned out to be two one cent pieces, so I dug into the centre of the large area to see if I could tell what it was( I was thinking iron sheeting for sure ), but it was a couple of two cent pieces, then they just kept coming, was a bit fatigued when I was getting towards the end, and the old knees could feel the pain there were a few rubbish targets in amongst it all ,... under pressure from Mrs S to get home and get tea started I did a quick rescan and pulled a few more quiet ones to light(amazing how you can have 1c pieces that still show up when you think you are all done hey !).
Here's the goodies.

When I counted them all up it turned out there were 50 1c's and 25 2c's.
All up 75 coins for a $1 total

Here's the rubbish from the hunt.

Don't know what was going on there, the only thing I can think of is kids playing, maybe learning to count or some such thing.
Stuffed now(and cooking too).
But coins are coins , and ya just can't not dig them hey ! :|

 

[rocketaroo]

lol, another BB stash? what are the chances! Almost sorry S, that I caused you to get cursed! lol

 

[Ramjet]

Astounding

 

[silver]

Must admit, I'm getting a bit over 1's and 2's, be alrighty if they were $ coins not c's.
