1817 Large Cent, Large Brass Skeleton Key, Unusual 1900 V Nickel & Relics!

[mangum]

I had a fun day Saturday with my buddies Chris & Chuck. We searched again for my 6th great grandfather's home but did not have any success. We ended the day at a site I've been to many times & always produces something. I found a beautiful, large brass skeleton key, an 1817 Large Cent, a 1900 V Nickel & some other neat relics. The V Nickel still has some "silver" intact, very unusual, almost looks like it was plated. We had to drive back in a snow storm, that was quite a ride! Thanks to my buddy Chris for keeping it together in the less than favorable conditions!

I’d say that’s a unbelievable day! I love everything you found beautiful skeleton key with a nice big tooth. Large cent which is still a huge bucket lister of mine and the arrowheads!! I’m just very impressed and jealous.

Neat finds, for sure. They should've plated all the nickles. It sure preserved the detail in those spots.
