The boy and I went back to where I found the seated dime.
We started off trying to clean the yard up a little so we could hit some new ground. He was using the sickle cutting down some weeds along the edge of the yard and I was clearing the back yard of limbs and branches.
The boy finished first cutting down a nice section of weeds and started detecting. He detected about half what he cut and yelled over to me that he had silver,1943P OD nickle.
I finished clearing most the branches from my area and ended up finding 5 wheats, a 1890 IH, and a Pass It On token.

Being in the Army OD always signified "olive drab" as in OD Green.
