Probably not much you can do with that. The green is likely hard as concrete.

Good point.
Soaking it may help.....or may not.

Oh well, next time!
Definitely try after a storm like Bavaria Mike said earlier.
There's still a cob waiting there yet!

Lovely looking Spanish copper cob. I have a little pirate in me, so that one is special to me. Get back to the beach, make yourself a bed in the sand, sleep overnight, wake up early in the morning, and start swinging in the same area where it was found. There are many more there to be found. Those pirates knew how to have fun, so you can bet there was gambling and lots of rum being consumed on that tract of land.
