F Y I: Among the comments made in a recent (July 20, 2022) article published by P---, entitled: "Why Did the U.S. Mint Stop Making the Half-Cent?" by Joshua McMorrow-Hernandez, appear the following:
"...those that are problem-free with original surfaces are highly desirable. Most trade for about $50. and up in grades of [P---] G-4 and are usually collected as components of type sets."
Irrespective of condition, locating one with a metal detector, anywhere, is quite a feat you can be rightly proud of. [I do not recall ever having seen one.]
thank you, I am kind of in the right spot for early US coinage and pre-1776 coins it's just a matter of getting the brass out of the way as I go as my family has also hunted this spot since the 60s and they have found 100s of Indian head Cents and other denominations before I was even born.

My guess is that he meant to write “AG”, not “AU” details. Regardless, none of this thread’s participants have suggested anything along the lines of what you mentioned. So please chill out.
thank you for catching that, it is meant to be AG this coin has tons of rim damage from being in the ground I am assuming since the 1850s or possibly during the civil war, the field is still in amazing shape though, Liberty is very legible and the olive branch is all there minus a ding probably from use.

@MarkFeld yeah after seeing the minimum $25 fee it has I am not going to do that, I figured 5% of value then ok but the coins only a $40 coin most likely due to the damage it has in the top left

Hi I metal detect and have found quite a few coins in my area I am a coin collector so I do not clean or polish my coins most still have dirt incrusted on them and I have heard NGC and PCGS both offer some sort of cleaning service where is that on the submission forms? I added my most recent find for an example on how I keep them and even in G3 this coin is $40 which is worth me submitting anyways I put it under a scope and it should get AG details environmental damage at the worst.
