Stopped by a recent house tear down before going to my usual spot. I was finding the usual tear down junk, but then a silver dime reading showed it's face at 7". When the 1941S merc came out of the ground I was a little intrigued and thought there might be some good coins in this spot. Next, about 50' away from merc spot, I got a half/dollar reading, I dug a big hole, but I must have been a little off, because the digger just scuffed the top of the dollar >:(. It was down about 5" and at first I thought it was a half, but when I pulled it out I said yes, a Morgan(1921D)! This is the second Morgan I have found, the other one , a (1921) was found in a boulevard when I was about 15. Then I found the 1964 Roosevelt. The plate has pony express on it. Also found about 11 wheat's. Hope you enjoyed looking. HH!!

I don't think I can clean it any more, it's made from that cheap white metal stuff or something and some of it has already been damaged from corrosion. Thanks for looking!

If it were me I would put it in Lime A Way gel for a while and then a little brass brush action.
Unless its paper thin then I guess I would be done with it too.
