Ohio Metal Detecting

Last week I picked up this quite nice 1926-S wheat cent from one of my local parks.  It is a scarce, low mintage date, and is in pretty good shape for a dug coin.  I thought this was my best wheat cent find for the year. I thought getting one semi-key date out of the almost 1,200 wheats I have dug this year was a great accomplishment.

But then I was going through some coins I had put in the rock tumbler for cleaning, and this 1914 wheat cent caught my eye.  I looked, I looked again, and darn if I can't see a really faint D mint mark on it.  Well, a 1914-D is one of the rarest wheat cents there is.  I check photos on the internet, and darn if that mint mark doesn't look like it's in the exact right position too.  It's a shame it's so worn and that I put it through the tumbler.  I doubt it is good enough to send out for authentication by one of the coin grading services, but it might be worth a $20 gamble to see if they see what I see.
