hey all,
I was out metal detecting when I came across the 1944 s wheat. I was wondering if it looks like its rusted to you, it feels like rust and looks rusted to me. Just wondering what you guys think . its not magnetic and it only weighs 2.9 grams.
I was wondering is that a magnetic steel they used in the coin or non magnetic

It's a copper cent. If it were steel and would be stuck to a magnet.
