If I want boring ol' copper all I gotta do is turn on the Xterra Fitty!

So it was back to the same site that made me "almost" wanna shoot myself!
(Instead of shooting myself that day, I decided to dig an 1891 Seated dime...)

Today I found a little more of the same modern projectiles that plagued me during the last hunt at this location :(

Then a nice strong signal just about 4" down...an old earring!

Of course I had to break the post cleaning it, DOH ::)
Let that be a lesson to all the other newbies out there, EASY does it.

Then last but certainly not least some boring ol' copper!
An 1851 Laaaarrrge Cent ;D

That is my third trip to that site and my third 1800's coin from there!
(1884 IH, 1891 Seated Dime, 1851 LC)

Thanx for looking guys & gurls.

Nice find Nick buff. Looks like that one will turn out great with a little olive oil bath. Nice condition. Also, you'll notice that I moved recently. i now live in a van down by the river. Keep up the good work!

She's a soakin' as I type this!

The above pics are after a quick water rinse...

Below is how she came out of the ground, after digging down 4" and around three meaty tree roots!

I earned that penny, thank god for my Lesche ;)

So Evolution... you live in a van down by the river... hmmm.

That would be quite a step down from Loudenville.

I'm guessing your new home may be in the city named after Mr. Van Rensselaer???

I'm still a Delmartian,

Make sure to give us a good after picture when that puppy is done soaking. Looks like it has some good detail.
 

Re: If I want boring ol' copper all I gotta do is turn on the Xterra Fitty!

Nice! Very nice! Congrats to you on the large cent.

Nice coppa! Hey, where in the heck is Outraged? I heard some members giving him hell for not sending the shirts on time...is he avoiding them?
 

Re: If I want boring ol' copper all I gotta do is turn on the Xterra Fitty!

Thanx for the nice comments, you guys are always so kind to my boring ol' copper finds :)

You can count on another pic posting after the oil bath ;)

Dunno what his dilly yo is... It wasn't my turn to watch him :D

I was wearing one of his beautifully designed relic hunting shirts during this hunt ;)

It soaked up my sweat from climbing the hills in this terrain nicely.

The first two I ordered found their way to my doorstep in a timely manner.

So I ordered a third... I hunt too much to be doing laundry ;D

A freahly showered,
