Hit a new spot today. It looked good on paper was had been overburdened with 4" of soil. Still ok. Found a ton of claddy coin spills (12 Rosie's in 1 hole) so I paid gas lol. Ended up digging a lot of junk but ground my first 1912 nickel ( liberty?) and my oldest Indian. A sexy 1889. Indian on video for the discovery.

Congrats on the IH and V. :icon_thumleft: You might want to check the V nickle for a mintmark. If it's an S, it could be worth a few bucks. It would be located on the reverse, at about 7 o'clock, under the dot.

I don't see anything there. Dang it! I'll be going back there. I have never found so many coin spills right on top of the ground. One hole had 10 dimes, another spill had 6 dimes on top, another was 8 stinkin linkins, another 3 quarters. I do t think its been done. Here's hoping!!
