Snow Hunt # 20....Unknown US Nickel, Loot, Token + ? Button Using ACE 250

[John-Edmonton]

Got out after dark, as I was waiting for the snow rats to pack up their toboggans and snowboards. It was a clear sky with about

1/4 moon out. Lots of bumps = Lots of $$$. And this snow hill had lots of bumps.



Here is a closeup of my "gooders". My first token of that variety, a new :usa Nickel (explanation please ) and a "FLOOR" button with a B52 (?) Bomber on it. I am lost with that one too Any help would be appreciated.

Hey!

As for the American nickle...it's "just a nickle". There's another one as well with a buffalo on it, I think. We've been doing States quarters for a while now, and they've just recently started doing Dollar coins; one for each of our Presidents. They're neat collectables, but most everyone overlooks them. I don't know what the price guides have to say about it, but you can spend it anywhere. As far as the cash registers are concerned...it's "just a nickle".

Btw, some of our paper money has undergone some changes, as well. I guess the guys in the Mint Dept. got bored and didn't have anything better to do. :P

The nickle is part of the "Westward Journey" series of nickles. Yours is the Keelboat design It depicts the boat used in the Lewis and Clark expedition through the rivers of the Louisiana Territory. There were over 300,000,000 of those nickles minted that year.
