Yeeeaaaahhhhhh buddy! One of the more odd coins out there, and to find a legible one, well....almost impossible. A HOW many mile hike?? That’s a guy who wants to hunt!
Merry Xmas as well, and great coin!

To be perfectly honest I’m not sure how deep It was or VDI digging a lot of nickels and I did not even know I had dug this coin I just did not look at it because I was digging a lot of Jefferson’s today I can do a air test on it tomorrow I’ll let you know Mike..

Hay mark.
I’m not saying yes or no on this.
Just had a friend get one of Indian heads and he cleaned it up really nice and he used a toothpick, toothpaste and an eraser.
He said it took a while but it looks a nice.
He ( not sure on this ) I’m guessing he used the toothpaste with the eraser slowly and carefully.
Erasers are cheap at the Dollar Store.
Just a thought for you.
