Don't let the park service know you found their stash.

Thats back when they made beer cans tuff.I tore down an old smoke house on my farm that had several Budweiser cans under it that are made out of the same stuff.It would take one heck of a man to crush one of those on their head.

hey - is that "as dug" (?)...or did you soak it.....there is a whole message board dealing with guys who dig for beer cans (some even use detectors) - www.therustybunch.com - Ive dug totally brown cans that have cleaned up like that one (or better) - some are still worth a lot even if half rusted out........

It is as dug .. so to speak .. It came from an old dump but it was sorta protected from the elements by some other junk. Thanks for the link ... I will go take a look!

I think you will get a kick out of the message board there......some friendly/informative people just like over here....you wouldn't believe some of the cleaning results they get.....
