The Indian head is a 1864 "fattie", the wheatie is a 1913, I can't identify the other coin, and a flat button.

What kind of reading does a Fatty give in Digital Mode? Never found a Fatty yet and I know it is because of the composition. I have found a regular 1864 Indian Head but only once. Too bad you can't remove the rest of the Corrosion on the Unidentified Coin. Maybe then you would be able to tell what it is. Maybe a Fine Brass Brush will remove the Build-Up. Continued Success, Good Luck and HH on your next hunt.

I put a quarter cup of hydrogen peroxide in the microwave and heat it to boiling. Then I drop my coppers in it. It bubbles off all the green crap. I take out the coin from the peroxide bath and use a damp wash cloth and gently wipe the coin from time to time while the peroxide does its thing.
Not sure if your large cent can be bettered by the peroxide.
Maybe you already know this.
Nice finds. Those fatties are hard to come by.
