bandsdean Pillar of the Community United States 2125 Posts	Posted 02/25/2017 3:59 pm If the corrosion is not into the coin it may come off. It looks like hard crusty dirt. There may be a nice brown cent under there or deep pits. You never really know until you try to take it off. Report this Post to the Staff
