I haven't taken pictures yet, but I found 3 Indian Head pennies but also a 2 cent piece! I am scared to touch it. :cheesysmile:

What can I do to clean it, should I just soak it in olive oil? I do not want to ruin it.

I will post pics after all are cleaned up. :happydance01:

I have found the 3-cent befor . They are worth about 3 gallons of gass . And that is in V-Good shape. So I clean them any way I can . Go on E-bay and you can see them .

That's how I felt when I found mine too lol

Mine's been soaking in olive oil for a month now- it was/is really, really grungy looking....

the 1st one I found I used the toothpick and olive oil method and when I got done I sent it off to be graded and it came back AU details corroded
