WOO HOO ANOTHER GW!

[HEAVYMETALNUT]

went back to a different site that me and Gary been to before.not the same site as my last GW .
Gary and Jesse(sniffy) hit this site too previously.Gary pulled a gold wedding band and jess got a ny excelsior button i think from here.
I was working the lip of the hole.alot of iron around this area but got a somewhat decent signal and thought it was just a dandy or cloak button.towards the end of the hunt i rubbed it a bit and saw a shield.
I said Gary i think I got another GW and he was like yeah ok pinnochio.
it's in rough shape and i'm afraid to even clean this one. it's the chicken eagle variety.
i used a dry toothbrush and put it down.before i ruin it i'd like some feedback on it if i should use soap,water and the toothbrush or just leave it as is?
look forward to your replies.
thanks,
Dave
