ID:	237192 I was using my Tesoro Tejon on the side of a steep hill just adjacent to a cornfield I regularly detect. Got a solid signal but deep. Thinking I had a silver coin I got down to about the 11 in level and found this. Being on the side of a hill the water drained off it nicely and stayed intact

      That is in fantastic condition. I sure wish mine came out looking that good.

      In life there are losers and finders. Which one are you?

        Ha ha thanks Bruce. I've found these things before but always in pieces. Shocked when I got it out of the ground intact and really shocked when I got it home for a couple days and had no condensation under the glass. Gotta love those finds on the sides of hills.
