Finally able to get out today. Headed back to Norfolk,Va. Near the historic water front. Had an amazing day; three first for me. First time finding a Indian head nickel and I found 4 [emoji15]. Also found my first V nickel, a 1908. My 3rd first was an Indian head cent. Will post pictures of the Indian head cent after I clean it. I know but it's so badly corroded.

Jason - I live in Suffolk and I went out for about an hour to one of the local parks. I got nearly skunked except for 1 clad dime and a lot of sloppy mud and tabs. If you want to hook up sometime I am up for it. Congrats on your finds. Glad someone could dig more than mud.

Sounds like a plan. My dad lives in Suffolk and I need to go visit him soon. Maybe we can plan a hunt.

Super day! :notworthy: :blob9::hello2:

Now that you've dug the groovy old nickels and cent, it's time to go back there for the silver dimes, quarters, haves & dollars! Maybe you won't dig all of them, but definitely have a chance of getting some in that same area, so - go for it! (sorry I sound bossy, too much caffeine & sugar, lol) Andi

15 years doing this...never found a buff yet. Took my kid to local park, gave him my old school Whites,,,,he found a 34 buff in 5 minutes. Karma.

Golden years, have found a lot of silver here already, but until now I've neglected nickel signals. Decided to did all 45-60 signals. Glad I did! [emoji16]
