Got a little surprise..
Got out in the rain to a park.....
Dug $4.03 in clad
3 wheats
My last coin was a green coin so put in the pouch.
The surprise was when I got home to clean the finds and saw that it was a 1904 IH
Look at the pictures of the lead slug.... It looks so much like a Jefferson Nickel if you look at it at the right angle ------- Cool look a like...
Too bad it doesn't look like Jesus I could have made $10,000 on ebay
Found the fob too....
Thanks for looking...

Always nice to be surprised after a slow day! I like the lead thing so much I would trade 6 nudie tokens for it.

You're all wet! That slug can't look that much like a nickel by coincidence, can it? Counterfeit?

Nice hunt Bob! I love that McCormick fob. . . I think that might be possibly pre 1902, very cool

I have a few more that I found too.....
Thanks for the offer but I will decline....
I'll will say one thing and that is if you look at it from above you can't see any figure.. I saw it by mistake when I had it on the table.
It is a one-of-a-king...
