Wow that must be some wicked soil! I bet electrolysis might clean them up. I will take crusty oldies over no oldies any day! Nice digs!

Yeah. Great find on the seated quarter. Wonder how it ended up looking like that? What kind of conditions did you find it in? Street construction? Land? Water?

Just curious. Thanks for sharing.

I found the seated down through the sand into the clay level about 10ish inches in a grassy open field. The buffalo was found at an old home site just barley under the pine needle level in about 1/4 in dirt total 3in deep. It is rare to have clay until you get about 3-4 miles east of here so I guess the clay is possible the reason the seated looks uky, most of the coins I pull are 5-6 in under the pine needle level in sand. But some of the copper tokens I pull from the same grassy field have the same wicked corrosion as the seated. The buffalo was pulled near the Indians I showed, and the Indians are in great shape so I think the buffalo was not deep enough from the pine needles and that is what caused that issue.

The seated in clayish dirt in an open grassy field and the buffalo in pine needle sand at an old home site. I will be profecting my electro bubbly cleaning process on other coins till I get it perfect and will give the seated a dip. I hope it works!
