[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 3614327, member: 10461"]Soil conditions can make all the difference in the world. I too might have been skeptical, had I not had Tim visit down here and seen him find that 1799 half-real before my very eyes, on a hard-hunted site which had been pounded by me, my extremely-skilled local buddy Billy (another world-class detectorist who's primarily a relic hunter), and several other people. Speaking of my local pal Billy, and exceptionally-preserved dug coins: [IMG]http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k173/lordmarcovan/17981cAUdetails-obvbefore.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k173/lordmarcovan/17981cAUdetails-revbefore.jpg[/IMG] (For [I]copper[/I] to be so well-preserved after centuries of burial is really something, but it does occasionally happen under certain conditions down here, in sandy, well-drained soils here in coastal GA.)[/QUOTE]
