Decided to go out for a quick hunt in of all places, my front yard. Now to set the scene for you, my front yard is the size of a postage stamp (sarcasm). But as I SLOWLY swung the coil of my fairly new Garrett Ace 350, I picked up what showed as a faint nickel signal. Dug down about 8 inches, broke out the pro pointer and kept getting a hit and miss signal. Couldn't find it right away. Of course it could have a lot to do with the fact that I was looking for a NICKEL or at least a NICKEL sized object. When I finally found the object, I noticed it was heart shaped. I at first thought, finally, my first jewelry find, but as I cleaned it, I noticed it had a design on it. Little did I know that it was a Buffalo Nickel that someone hard carved into a heart. I've never seen anything like this, and this is by far my best find to date. I'm counting it as my first buffalo nickel find and my first jewelry find lol.
I also found this little button, my fist button find as well. I'm not sure how old it is, but I thought it was pretty cool. If anyone has any idea to what around how old this button may be, please give your opinion. Also, the buffalo nickel is carved so much that the date has been removed, but I'm fine with that, lol. Here's a couple of pictures of the button...
