I’ve had no luck so far. I found it metal detecting earlier this morning.

1959
I'm with @Insider2, it looks like a 1925-D to me.

Can't make out a date, but can make up a date -- 1909-D
LOL....LOL.... It looks like a 1925-D.
Well we know it is not a 1922!

I agree with the 192-D.... cannot make out the fourth digit.... Good luck, Cheers, RickO
lmao
Let's spend many hours trying to sort it out. Maybe PCGS can figure it out, you better send it in.

Have you tried dipping it?
A little nitric acid rinse will either bring up the date or obliterate all the features!

This coin might be an answer to the age-old question: when is a cent only worth half of a cent?

192_ d. Maybe 4. Better date if so, but not in that condition.
More importantly, it's likely a new double die or something. It has a giant line down the front, seems rare to me. Either way you are sitting pretty.

Does the metal detecting crowd use nic-a-date?
No idea on the date, but is that a gorilla sticking his tongue out right next to the 9? Take a closer look, the two dark spots are the eyes. Hard to see in the photo but in hand its really real.

It's a bronze 1943-D
or not
Could be a 1909 or a 1958 or any date between those....
On the "enhanced" Sheldon scale I'd give it a -10 (That's a minus 10)
Me too.
it's crackers to slip a rozzer the dropsy in snide
1906 d. spend it
I see you're into my new hobby specialty - Coins found on or in the ground. My first in the ground find was as a kid while searching for Indian Artifacts. I found a Half of a Chain Cent. The thing was so worn you could barely make out the Chain . Too bad I didn't keep that thing. I wish I could track that early " Half Cent " down.
Nowadays I amuse myself by grabbing Coins off the Parking Lots out there.The cost is right but the fun isn't so great.

What is the reveal?
I cannot make out the bow tie let alone the date.
It is interesting to wonder how this coin spent the last decades of its life though

Mystery forever, probably. Too far gone.
Not anymore.
