Cold as all get out, 20 degrees 30 mph winds. What a difference a day makes. Same soybean field Iv'e been hunting the last few days. Looks to be an early Classic Head Cent. I love finding those bells too.
Enjoy the pix

A Big coin, nice
 

Yeppers, looks like a LC to me too, I think I even see part of a date!

Just look on the ground right below you in the vid. 19......no......18?? lying right there! In the dust! :tongue3::BangHead:

A LC for sure.....or....at least it "used" to be! ;)

Nice! (I think?) :dontknow:
 

Man I'm enjoying watching you nail these oldies my friend

I know what it is, it is a Classic Head Cent, I don't know what the date is, I might get dates at a later date. I didn't see your reply on the other rubbing until I got home with this one. If I get a shot at another I will get it closer to the mike for you Gary and rub a little harder. I'm hoping I'll get that silver on video, then you won't see any rubbing, might see a little licking going on, lol haaaaaaaaaaaa.

Congrats on the old copper and bell
Thanks Art, I know you understand.

Thanks Abe, I sincerely appreciate that, you know it's been a real hard long time for me to find a permission like theses I've found this year. I always liked your adventures of hard work and near death experiences pay off too. I don't know why but this LC took me on a ride as it emerged from its dirt nap, I seen so many different coins appearing as the dirt fell away. Ask Steve about my text, I bet I had him either laughing his arse off or scratching his head. It's been a long time, since I had one emerge like that. It was like that when I found that NJ Copper couple years back.

Yep, that coin was talkin'. I heard him say, "I don't get nooooo respect!" ;) Like has been said before...and not by me..."If it ain't seated, it ain't cr*p!"

I'm not of the school that teaches "absolutely NO cleaning of ANY old coin is correct". I disrespect my clad even worse than you! LOL But, if I can tell it's older than a memorial cent, I do slow down. Knowing the date, or even what it is in the field becomes less important. I mean, even a 1909-svdb hasn't much numismatic value coming out of the ground. But, I'd hate to think I sandpapered the vdb off trying to see. :)

As far as the "licking" goes? Not knowing what's been put into the ground that could do to copper what it does, will keep me from EVER putting a find anywhere NEAR my mouth, ever! There are limits! My best friend and former partner used to do that all the time. He always poo-pooed any of my grimaces, or comments with it won't hurt ya. He's dead now. sigh...... truth.....I miss him something terrible! Nuff said?

Each has their own style, but if one calls himself friend, he is obligated to point out things that are dangerous, no matter the consequence.

Keep plugging, rubbing and licking to your heart's content!
 

Hi there,
Sorry to correct you, but its a Sleigh bell not Crotal. Doesn't change your day though.:thumbsup:
 

Haha, great video. It made me miss digging with you buddy. You're always smiles and laughs and that's what this hobby is all about. And yep, that coin did all sorts of things to your brain. Facing left. Facing right. D-Bust, capped, matron.....lol.

Keep at it brother. Cold or heat. Hopefully we'll get a hunt together soon.

I found another today, I didn't get this one on video because it rang so low I was thinking it was going to be a button. I have no idea other than it's an old copper. It is by far the most toasted of the bunch. It sounded good, the VDI was way off, it might of been on edge maybe I don't know. If your off this month, 27th- the 30th let me know.
