Small herd of Buffalos and silver on the last 2 hunts

[wisconsin digger]

Got in 2 hunts this week Thursday and today and had good results. After finding a Buffalo and 3 silver on Thursday I was able to find 3 Buffalos and 3 silvers today, hi-lited by a Washington and 2 Mercs. Also, managed to find 9 wheats in the 2 hunts. Keep swinging Wisconsin Digger

Nice collection of silver. Buff looks good as well, don't see them that color very often.

The clean one already got it's salt and vinegar bath. The other 3 turned out just as nice. 1920, 1923, 1923 ( I think) and a '36. Thx WD

:wow: What a great week you had. Now I know why I haven't found any Buffs lately, You got to them all first. :lolsign:
Great bunch of finds!!

Great bunch of finds! Otherwise familiar with the salt & vinegar bath, but the results are great! What are the detsils, have a couple V nickels that need help like that

 

[wisconsin digger]

An ounce or two of vinegar and add salt. the more salt the more acidic and corrosive on the nickels. I like to place coins in a small aspirin or vitamin container and shake for a couple of minutes. I usually mix in with regulr clad coins. Trial and error. Use to clean all no dates and common coins. Works great

Thanks much, I'll give it a try!

What a wonderful fingding you had. I never found so many coins in my detection. I bought a new matal detector, I wish I will find some treasure.[FONT=&quot]Metal detecting is magical. [/FONT]

Very nice group of keepers. For some reason the buff always eludes me but not for the people around me.

I use an ounce or two of vinegar and salt solution and usually shake in container for a couple of minutes. If the coins are not bad out of the ground they usually turn out pretty nice. Just experiment on old Jeffersons till you get the solution right. WD
