    I found this coin in my yard. It’s super crusty and I have no idea what it is but it looks like a coin... haha

    Soak it in water for a day or so. See what falls off.

    I tried that already. A little bit came off. Any idea what it is?

    Does it stick to a magnet?

    I just checked. A magnet can pick it up but it is kind of weak.

    I think it’s most likely copper...
