I always count a silver nickel as silver.

What a great hunt!

You did nail a Silver War Nickel and I'd be plenty happy with those IHCs and the V Nickel. :thumbsup:

I agree with Tenspeed: a war nickel is still a silver nickel. WTG. How about the cross? Is it gol?

That's a nice haul.

I love hunting the old parks. Next time you'll go back find no wheats and 3 or 4 silvers.

Strange how it works certain days. Some days I get three silvers and no wheats.
