at the giving park with Banditicey yesterday and managed a few more wheats, bringing my total to over 55 from this park this year, also a couple of IH's . the surprise of the day was a V-nickel encased in tar? took a while to work it off but it was an 1896. and pretty shiny. looks like I am taking the next few weeks off while the E-trac goes in for some testing( having sensitivity issues)
the tar was very hard so chipped off rather easy, Eva helped with a fingernail at first so we could see the front. I scrubbed with a tooth brush and some gun cleaner(all I had) . it was pretty bright so I hit it with an sos pad and it looks great. the only tarnish(oxidation) spot is on one edge, I left that...did't want to scrub to much.
