This was a crazy little hunt I found two of those glass electrical things pretty cool I wanna spoon lead round thing another glass piece that would kind of look like something in a bathtub but it doesn?t have any innards or anything I thought it was cool some flat thing made of something and I got all across the no telling what it was nickel so I cleaned it and it?s a 1896 V. And last but not least the old dog came up with the three ringer I have found over 3 ringers of all sizes and all dropped in a 50 x 50 spot that just looks like every other piece of grass at this park. It?s never hunted out. Thank you for letting me share my day. The old Nickel View recent photos 2.png

Great stuff Truth! I love those blue glass electricity insulators, but I've never found one "in the wild". And that V nickel cleaned up really nice!
Congratulations!

I want to thank everybody for the kind words it meant a lot to me more than you probably realize it?s times like these where friends and family are important I have a very small family and I also I have not a lot of friends by choice. But I really do enjoy team that never been much on anything else twitters safe spaces Facebook all that crap you?re a good group of guys. My wife calls me the most outgoing loner she ever met. I think this is a good video that explains me so I appreciate all the prayers and if anybody says prayers don?t work just slap them :)))) I would say this says it all
