[QUOTE="Eduard, post: 486130, member: 8959"]I thought some of you would like to see a few more of my detecting finds: The 1877 50 Pfennig coin (mintmark D) was found last weekend in my "favourite" woods, which has thus far yielded a total of 8 Silver (including the Trajan denarius i posted here a few weeks ago). This coin needed NO cleaning at all. The 1/3 Taler of Prussia i found in a differents forest, a couple of months ago. It was heavily encrusted but cleaned up very nice. I found it literally almost stepping out of the car and walking a few meters into the woods. The signal was so loud it almost blew my ears off.
