I found 2 more seated coins the last couple weekends. The first came at a park that I have detected many many times and dates to the 1870's. I was detecting around a cement structure and came across a shallow penny signal. The coin was caked with a thick black sulfide but I did see a bit of the silver showing through. It was an 1886 dime and I gave it Angel's treatment which worked well.
Then yesterday I hit another old park and came across a deep whispery high tone but there was a nickel/foil type low tone nearly on top of it. I was not sure if there really was a good high tone deep but I cut a big plug and dug extra deep and looked in the hole and saw a silver coin. This one was an 1876 S Quarter!!
Here are some better finds from this year...
It has been a great few weeks detecting for me!
Thanks for looking!
