2 separate hunts in the same day, scored my 2nd IH!!!

First I went to the beach in the morning, I went into the water. Just up to my knees though, I wanted to practice
swinging the coil in the water and digging in the water. I have to say it will take some getting used to. After staring
down for so long at the water, I had vertigo!!! I had to look at some thing on the beach, it was pretty disorienting.
LOL Also, it was pretty tricky trying to dig my target without being able to see my coil, again it will take some getting
used to. LOL

Then at in the afternoon I went to an old park and found my 2nd Indian Head Penny!!! I also found 2 pistol slugs.

The combined take for the day was just $2.36, but I had a blast!!!

The IH is green, the pic doesn't show it very well.

Those are some great finds there pal, good job. I have some really green I.H.'s also. I don't advise you putting that green coin in peroxide, it ate my coin when I tried it.

Big Congrats TF , That is a very Nice IH
Do be careful about the cleaning , peroxide baths are helpful
on some copper. But I found out the hard way if the coin has already
started to pit , the peroxide made it much worse. I did that to a LC

I tried the pirate in the water yesterday evening and it sure is different , you'll
be pulling those gold rings in no time
