That was in some condition. I have seen worse in coin shops.

Congrats.

Mike

Thanks! All I had to do was let it soak in vinegar for a few hours and hit it with a toothbrush.

The soil is weird down here in SW FL. I have pulled some pennies a couple of years old out of black sand that are corroded and pitted to heck. This one and a few others I have found were in a white sand layer and coated with a hard white layer of something. Calcium? It doesn't dissolve in water, only vinegar. It sure preserves the copper, whatever it is. I haven't found any silver with the white layer. Any ideas what it could be?

I have hunted in Floida (Gulf side) and it could be a coating of a salt like substance. I am always careful when cleaning with viniger as it has been known to pit. Still it was a great fine for you.

Cheers,

Mike
