Congrats on the great find of a capped bust of this quality! I always carry a small container of DISTILLED WATER with me to drop this type of find in to stop the temptation of rubbing the dirt off,works real well...

But my first target of the day was a beauty. An 1832 Capped Bust quarter ! I didn't dare clean it in the field but my buddy took a look and knew exactly what it was. As a matter of fact he practically predicted this find. On the hike in he stated that you never see people posting Capped Bust quarters. He was rewarded later in the hunt with a nice Colonial copper.
Pulled a couple of buttons including this cuff button with fox jumping over a log.
Deer ticks were bad but the hunt was good.
