Cleaned up and ready to go

Steel would stick to a magnet. But also would have rusted in the ground. I know some people were copper plating the steel penny's trying to pass them off as copper 43's.

Either way man a wheat of any kind is a good find in my book. Congrats on the wheat and nice clean job.
Thanks coin chaser

44 steel worth money, 44 copper common
43 copper worth money, 43 steal common
JackalopeZL1, One year to late. I'll have to keep detecting hope to find more this Spring.
 
It is fun wondering where and when the next one will pop out of the ground!! Keep it up
Just waiting for the winter freeze to thaw out and I'll be back out. Thanks.

Nice cleaning job !!
Thanks pescadore.

It is isn't it.. Wish I could get them looking that way after 60 to 90 years in the dirt!!
When you only have one coin to clean you can focus on doing a good job. It was not to bad to start with.
