buffalo nickel

My first ever Buffalo nickel and some old play money!! Fantastic day :):)

Hi y'all! *sorry in advance for pictures, I'm a treasure hunter, not a photographer* I had a pretty Ok hunt today at an 1880 house, on a property that supposedly had an 1820 house at one time, I haven't found any evidence of it yet though. Anyway, here is what I found... a 1908 IH, 191X and...

Walked from school straight to the bank this afternoon to buy a few rolls of nickels to look for a 2019 Nickel for a 20 yr time capsule the school will be burying later this summer. At the bank I take out a 20$ and told the teller I’d like to deposit half and have the other half in Nickels...

I was there when that roll of nickels were opened,in greeley Colorado at a burger king, I noticed and commented it too the worker, she said that they were all like that'.

I went out to one of my favorite parks to get out of the house and detected in the snow until my hands were stiff. I started in the dump and wasn't finding much good stuff so I moved to another area in the woods where I found a 1934 Buffalo with really good detail, probably dropped during the...

Today I went detecting at my new permission. This recovery find ( http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/today-s-finds/514484-when-opportunity-knocks-listen.html#post5110594 ) opened up some new detecting sites for me. Found these two nice old coins there! The sandy soil there is certainly very mild...

Due to cold weather and snow here in Maryland, I did not get out to detect for a month. I'm sure many of you were in a similar situation. Today's hunt was something of a first for me, in that I found my first Mexican silver coin and the Buffalo nickel was first mint year, the earliest Buffalo...

Came across piles of garbage bags tossed in the woods of my local park the other day. Probably dumped by house renovators or an angry landlord. Initially sparked my curiosity because I could see alongside the garbage were everyday household items like pots, pans, and old books. Here is some of...

Have you ever been iffy on digging or about to give up and then you get a great find? I know it's happened to me. Tell us a story of when it happened to you (if it happened to you). Here are times it happened to me. I was in the woods of a school from the 1950s that I mainly detect because it...
