My only other find was a coin which was so toasted I didn't think it would ever show any detail. I have had it soaking in MS 70 and just now lightly buffed it with Jeweler's rouge ..To my surprise, I can see some detail coming through the front. The back has not yet shown itself. Any guesses as to what it might be?

KG III. I get fooled plenty on some of the odd coppers, so don't rule them out.
 

All cleaned up!

Here is what the back of the coin looks like this morning. I think it says 17-- .
I put some red dots on what looks like a seven under the loop, but maybe I am imagining things.
