Congrats on an awesome day of digging. Nice assortment of coins there. You hardly ever see V nickels and nickel 3 centers come out of the ground looking that good. Your soil must be mineral free.

wow that is real close to a nickel.....very odd. On the etrac a nickel is 12-13 and a 3 cent nickel is only 12-06 HALF of what a nickel is. Good deal you were able to get it
