I didn't get to detect as much as I wanted to, but another week wouldn't have hurt a bit. Spring in Ky is very nice.

Makes no sense at all... maybe this coin came home from WWII. And if it had not been "holed" it would be worth about $50. ha ha ha <img src="/metal/html/biggrin.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt=":D">

Glad you got a chance to get away from it all for a bit, and was able to detect too. Too bad about the coin <img src="/metal/html/frown.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt=":(">
Which one of the bullets is the nose cast? The one on the far left?
