    It is always hard to go to work, regardless. I wire bushed the wheats, not much value and they usually turn out OK, just can't clean up the crusty green ones very well as you can see. Thx WD

    Wow. Nice haul. Parks up here have been cleaned out loooong ago. Gotta hit the private yards and cellar holes in the woods to find the goodies. Congrats.

    Grats with the silvers. Never seen a wheat that eaten away. The token from a smaller screen looked like a half dollar at first. Nice token.
