3 silvers, '36 Nickel and a toasty LC?

Went to a new park and took back few keepers. Silver is nice: two worn 1918 mercs and '61 Rosie. Also pulled a 1936 buffalo nickel, it's fragile and I don't want it to flake away, thus not cleaning it. ... However it would be great to know if it's a 3.5-legged D buffalo. And I believe I have a toasted LC with z drill hole, been trying to ID it but after few days of soak I'm still not seeing anything to help with the ID.

Here are a few photos, any ideas on how to clean the buffalo without wetting it, it's very fragile.

nice mix of finds, and nice Draped bust LC!

Just to make sure...you're not rubbing your silver coins, right? The two mercs look to have swipe marks. If that was a 16-D, if would have lost hundreds of dollars in value.

Just q-tip and water to clean those.
