Not exactly sure of what I found here

bruinvikes · Feb 25, 2017

I didn't put this in the ID my find section because I know that it is a five cent coin. But what I'm puzzled about is that on one side it says United States of America and on the other it says Filipinas. On the Filipinas side it also says five centavos. The year is 1945. When I pulled it from the ground I thought it was 1915, but after cleaning it under tap water it clearly is 1945. This coin was about four inches deep with this key sitting directly on top of it.

Nice recovery on the coin. I always liked the looks of the old Ford keys.

Yeah, same here!

Could be like a 1950's to early 1960's blank.
