The honeydipper pooped out these two when the driver cleaned the grit from the tank at the end of my road.

Throw them back! ACK!

I have no idea what any of that means but I'd dump those into a Coinstar machine without touching them.
Honeydipper LOL, I haven't heard that term in a long time. I bet some of the younger crowd have no idea what you're talking about.

And I should have also said GROSS!

Definitely save them for paying taxes.

It's the septic tank technician. Breathe thru your mouth. Scrub em off with some cleanser and don't pick your nose. Peace Roy

Guys, you won’t believe that my wife brought them in. I don’t believe it.
That is absolutely gross! Post your pic so I don't accidently shake hands with you sometime!
She wanted 30 cents more than I would...

I just realized this is your first and second post. How were you able to post pictures? I had to wait a few days and get approved as a member.

"The honeydipper pooped out these two when the driver cleaned the grit from the tank at the end of my road."
"Guys, you won’t believe that my wife brought them in. I don’t believe it."
You should call the company and tell them to clean out their trucks where your wife can't find em'.
For the fun of it, soak them in acetone for a while to see what they look like.
Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.

Looks like OP joined the forum in April, according to their forum profile.
Nothing is as expensive as free money.
They signed up in April.
And growing up in the early 1950s we always had a "honey bucket" or "slop jar" under the bed for use during those cold nights when it was too chilly to get dressed and run out to the outhouse.
To the best of my memory I never dropped the cat or baby sister down the hole in the outhouse.
Rather than the "Coin Star reject find" thread we can start a new "Honey Bucket reject find" thread.
It might not be as popular butt who nose.
Do you mean the 1850s ?
First thing I thought of;
"Kids swallow quarters all the time. If she craps out 2 dimes and a nickle then you can start worrying."

The folk on Etsy will not pay as much.
My wife hates my 60 year hoard of pennies; she wants me to collect quarters.
I have a soft spot for maimed Abes.
I have worked at a sewer treatment lant for years and have seen a lot of clad coming throught the lines to the pits. When they dig the pits with five gallon buckets every few months the haul is around 70 to 80 face value in clad. When the Vac trucks clear out sewers in the older sections of town we have even found gold rings and one gold coin. We recycle our sand from the streets from the sewers as well, these are somtimes the best finds with older coins but they look like hell. The neatest find was a "sheriff" star badge from the 1880's. (this was from Lincoln Nebraska).
I see what you did there.

Ah no, we had an outhouse until 1956 when we moved into the new house with a flush toilet. I was shocked when I started Elementary School and we actually had flush toilets in the restrooms.
Before we moved into our new house we lived with my Grandmother and as soon as I was big enough it was my job to take the slop jars to the outhouse, empty them then wash them out at the outside faucet and leave them to dry outside. I also had to shovel out the coal ash on cold mornings and fill up the coal scuttle, take the ashes out and dump them on the ash pile then fill up the scuttle, take the coal back in and lay the fire for the next evening.
At least we had refrigerator which replaced the ice box (which still sat on the back porch just in case) and a gas stove. We were living in tall cotton compared to the neighbors.
Well, at least it's not another thread with a parking lot find, so there's that...
Hmm..learn something new everyday.
I have frequently commented about toilet toned gem Barber Halves, and joked that I needed gloves to handle these coins, even if they were slabbed, but this takes it to the next level. A big "to je govno."
"Seu cabra da peste,
"Sou Mangueira......."
"A royal flush beats a full house any day." I once saw that on the back of a septic tank truck "honey wagon."

I figure that someone would have said that they were acetoned already.
LOL, I see what you did there too.

Looks like rare off metal errors that are worth a small fortune. 🤮
A: The year they spend more on their library than their coin collection.
A numismatist is judged more on the content of their library than the content of their cabinet.
Should we really be encouraging people to post crappy coins like these?
I found a use for that patinaed plastic flip that I could not toss:
JBK, I own only crappy coins,
One word. LYSOL

It was a pun, of course. I hope you're whole collection did not come from the same source, though.
This thread is going to make me think twice the next time I get a dirty coin in change.
Pecuniam non olet.
Thanks for the easy intro to the forums. I regret that I will not offer you much expertise nor photos beyond common.. A lot of weird stuff happens around me, though.
My uncle told me to check my pennies for the left-facing Lincoln when I was six, hence the thumbnail for my profile:
My wife has found my most interesting coins. This was in the change that she just gave me.
This was my first post and I understand why I wanted to be here after I reread this thread; you guys are fun.
I think that I was too anxious to appreciate it. I added likes and lols.
I see the the delamination and the patch on the shoulder. The black streak is ?
What terms are precise for a description? What grade would this cent grub?
EF? Details?
Edit: of course
"Patinated" HTH
