cwb1877 Pillar of the Community United States 1659 Posts	Posted 03/02/2012 5:31 pm I'd say it has UNC details, or at least very nearly so. Even with the damage, it is still an amazing find! Report this Post to the Staff

SHAFTA9a Bedrock of the Community Canada 10743 Posts	Posted 03/02/2012 7:01 pm That is a great find, even with the corrosion still a nice hard to get semi-key. Oh, sorry, Welcome to the Forums... Edited by SHAFTA9a 03/02/2012 7:02 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Peter4805 Pillar of the Community Canada 987 Posts	Posted 03/03/2012 02:15 am Wow, that's a major find for a metal detector. I think I'm doing great when I find any Wheat cent with my detector let a lone a key date. Nice condition too. I'd say AU details. Report this Post to the Staff
BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 19965 Posts	Posted 03/03/2012 03:11 am WOW! Awesome find! AU/MS details! It's too far gone for NCS to do anything, it's already been cleaned a little too. VC would help it a little, but the verdigris is heavy and the surfaces are pitted. The best thing to do is to protect it from air. Lincoln Cent Lover! VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/ Report this Post to the Staff
RJrelics New Member United States 36 Posts	Posted 03/03/2012 10:37 am Tunnioc, I found this in southwestern CT, at my parents 1920's house with a Garrett ACE 350 about 7 inches down. Will share some more coins with you guys when I get a new camera and learn to take proper pictures. Badthad thanks for the information, going to order some verdicare and give it a soak and put it into an airtight. Definitely cleaned this coin maybe a little too much but have no intentions to sell it, I'm too attached to my finds lol Report this Post to the Staff
