It took a little over 2 months, but I have started
hitting the deep ones.
It just clicked one day last week and now I am getting coins in the 8"-13" range.
About half of these coins "locked" on.
The only constant with all of them was the high tone. Some were deeper then my Lische hand digger.
All were found going VERY slow.
My question is ....What is the best and quickest way to remove the green coating...besides olive oil??
The top ones are indians and the dime is a 1902. The rest are wheaties. The ring is a Art Deco Sterling. I found these on my last 2 trips to my favorite hunted out park.
thanks

I recently tried using waterless clear hand cleaner and a tooth brush, the stuff that kills germs. I notice that everytime i wetted a copper coin or used vasoline or olive oil that the coin turned dark and stayed that way. Scrub with the hand cleaner and wipe with a soft cloth to remove the dirt and green, do not get water on the coin after digging. Let me know how it works for you.
 
If you can find it try blue ribbon coin cleaner and a brass brush
