1877 Key date and plus more (update) more pics

[IAsoldier]

Well its been a great week that all started Friday evening after school. Lately Ive been getting silver at least once per day and wheaties. I cant complain to much on the weather which has been great so far even for today. Now today I did what I normally do is head out to one of the local parks and beep it up and down the hills. Well it paid off I finally, found the key date in IH pennys which I was totally not expecting to find in the middle of no where. Now is there a best way to clean the 1877 with out damaging it and how do I send this off to NGC or PCGS for slabbing.

Update did a little bit of cleaning with a soft brush and warm water. The 1877 IH came out very nice and green I would grade it F-XF shows liberty but faded. The shield in back has full lines and all wheats shows. Also today a bank while cashing payroll check I got these 3 Proof Silver Quarters as change all mint mark of S . 2004-Texas,2006-Neb and 2010 Mount Hood

Silver dimes, 1883 Seated, 1901 Barber, Mercurys 1918, 1936-D,
2 silver rings, one copper
Wheaties, 1917,19,41-D,57-D
Key dated 1877 IH

Here you share such amazing and unique collection of 1877 coins. Its all look too old and great. I like this time of old thing for know and remember about our history. Also Thank for sharing cleaning coin with soft brush.

That should get much better.

Peroxide soak with light brushing. Once done lay flat to dry (no water) to keep the patina, or rinse with soap to wash it away. It would be pure insanity to leave that coin as is.

Yep what iron patch said.

[Gunrunner61]

Daaamn it Man! what finds!..

It was a shocker at first but from the park I was at doesn't surprise me any. A gentleman told me it was very old and has lots of oldies. Said back in the early 90's he gotten a few 1877 outa here in same location plus gold coins. I'll be back hitting it again the fall. Wish me luck
