COIN COUNT SO FAR

So far this is the coin total for the year.  Next week the weather is supposed to warm up but I don't think it will be enough to melt some of the snow to try a hunt.

NOTHING CHANGED

Same old story - cold weather and snow.  Still doing some research but even that gets a little tiresome too .  The weather may be warming up by next week, but there is still a lot of snow and no telling how hard the ground is .  But when the time comes to get out and hunt, I should have a few places to try .

TIP OF THE WEEK - CLEANING PENNIES

Here's one way to restore dug Lincolns and Indians pennies.  After cleaning off the dirt, put a drop of Tabasco Sauce on the penny.  After about 5-10 seconds wipe off - shiny as new. There's some sort of chemical reaction that the copper reacts to the pepper sauce. Caution! If you have a penny you believe is very valuable "DON'T" do this - its better left uncleaned.

STEELERS GO DOWN - MORE RESEARCH

Well I watched my Steelers go down in the super bowl last night , so now I can really concentrate on more research. Again the weather is going to colder midweek so and with the new snow fall it will be awhile before anybody around here gets out .  I getting anxious to get out but I know all I can do is research for now.
