Went back to where I found the silver walker 1/2 dollar, didn't find any silver coins just 1 silver earring, and 9 wheaties. So I waited til later and went to the ball park where I found my first 2 silvers, and behold I found another silver dime it was covered with what seems to be hard dried tar.

That's an odd one. You can see the silver peeking through. Congrats!

You sure he wasn't tared and feathered after he took the USA off the gold standard? Feathers rotted probably

Nice find.

Soak that in some WD40 and it should clean up some more.
Nice save!

Nice save! The Roosevelt series from '46 to '64 didn't really have any super rare dates, but if there was a key or semi-key date, it would be the 1950.....so yes, like Whadi said, a little WD40 will clean it right up...thx for sharing...ddf
 
I love the suspense when you find something you have to clean before you know what it really is! Congrats!!!
 
Silver is silver, tar covered or anything else! Nice job getting that junk off!
