What do you do with your unidentifiable coins?

    I have two coins that I've had for a while and am trying to decide what to do with them. One was dug up metal detecting in Kentucky and the other was found in a penny roll from the bank. The one is so corroded that I cannot see anything that suggests its identity. The other one is brass colored but worn slick. Both are a bit larger than a penny. Any suggestions?

    with the corroded ones ...they go on a wire wheel and/or a rock tumbler

    with misfit coins ...i throw them in group of tokens and foreign coins- then they go to my Coin Club auction

    The Brass one is most likely a punch out. Not a coin. The other is so corroded, I don't think that a coin star would even take it.
