They are zinc (modern) pennies in various stages of corrosion. I used to wonder what everyone meant by "Felix pennies," too, until I ran across a post explaining it. They are really annoying to dig up but you don't want to ignore them in case it's something good.

If it was an IH, it wasn't a "Felix".

I doubt you'll hear the inane "felix penny" term any place outside this forum. Kind of reminds me of the inane "sil in the poc" lingo of the detector show.

At first I was going to say, Hey! I thought I ruled all things Zinc! But after careful consideration, I'll let you have em Felix! Like I told Swing the other night. "My new AT Pro sure makes a distinct sound over zincolns.....the sound of diarrhea!"

I've always tumbled those pennies too, they cash in just as good as a regular cent. Monies money...

Last year at the end of the season I had two zip lock bags of pennies that were too coroded for the coinmachine so while I was working downtown I had thrown them all over the sidewalks. It was fun watching all the bums scavenge them up.

I always load up the "need a penny" container by cash registers with those. I bet the cashiers hate putting those in their registers.
