Well guess it's obvious I need to be worked a little more it's definitely a continental dollar though, whether it's authentic or not I can't speak on but if you look where fugio, and mind your business is, you can make out the letters somewhat and on the reverse you can make out we and one and nose rings are unmistakable I appreciate the response   |

I can't even tell if that's a coin for certain. What's the diameter? That's likely to be more reliable than the weight. On the plus side, who needs a metal detector when you have a dog like that!

I'm not seeing it. Those surfaces are so corroded and eaten up, there's no way of seeing the original devices at this point, IMO. Look hard enough and one can probably find just about anything in there! Pareidolia. and best of luck. |

The Continental Dollar was made of pewter which doesn't corrode like that

I have had success with crudded indianhead cents using baking soda and white vinegar repeating until date finally showed. Of course the coin was ruined but was it was valueless and was able to see 1883 after many sizzles. I only recommend this if you feel coin is way beyond help and you are ok with totally trashing it. It does work fairly well ruining and clearing the crud.
