I had a blast today!

I was out for about 3-4 hours... It started out a little slow... but...

I was getting clad... and hit a spot that yielded 2 wheat pennies... and then I got a sweet sound @ 6-7...

Next was a nice 12/47 @ 6 and I was thinking more about silver... but the target was a mostly toasted Large Coppa...

That's a great mix of awesome finds! The peroxide bath might work for the LC too. I used it for just a small amount to bring out a date on one I found this year. Just don't over-do it... LC's tend to only get worse with cleaning.
