I hit the jackpot ... or bottle that is!

Hey! There are a few cans in this dump. They are rusted, but not to the extreme, and have SOME labels left on them. The top is flat and appears to be aluminum while the rest is steel. Should I grab it/them? I'm wondering about them but left them where they are since I don't really collect or know anything about cans. I'll take one and send a pic if you think they are worth a shot.

tough to say without seeing them , myself I tend to take rusted cans home to look at them in further detail as I find it too tough in the wild , some clean up better , some don't

You can soak them in citric acid to clean some of the rust off, but generally aluminum top cans aren't collectible unless they're in really good condition. It's the ones with the steel tops that are much more collectible.

You must be a young blood if you think this stuff has value. Unfortunately the stuff is mainly re-cycle. Dig more.

I'd keep them and try to sell them, and whatever doesn't see quickly, right into the recycle bin. Always better to recycle them then leave them in the woods.
