Vinegar is very tough on coins... especially copper. It will also pit nickels very quickly.... RickO
Now that would truly be a heartstopper... wow.... what a thrill. RickO
Great pictures Leslie... and sounds like a good vacation... next time though, I would recommend Barbados... much nicer. I lived there for two and a half years. Folks are genuinely nice and basically...
Interesting button... certainly have not seen one like that before. If it is a number, perhaps it referred to a military unit. RickO
Thanks for the write up... The V3 is a great machine, and we all benefit from sharing our experiences. RickO

Great haul.... that starburst is a button? Nice looking... HH RickO

Nice score... next come some large coppers.. good luck z.... HH RickO
Nice hunt.. with all that, there will be gold and silver - soon... :) RickO
