I went into the woods left of my home, which is my property. I was mainly picking up Iron signals until I went next to this big, odd looking tree and I suddenly got a Nickel signal according to my Fisher F2. Since I kept getting low toned signals, I decided to dig it up, I usually don't dig Nickel signals but I am glad I did. So I dug for at least 30 seconds and the hole was at least 6 inches deep. I stuck my pin pointer down in said hole and it went it off! I saw the rim of the object and I knew right off the bat what it was. As I plucked it out of the hole there was dirt all over it, I thought it was a Buffalo Nickel since it was toned like one. But as I brushed the dirt off gently, I saw the stars on the coin. I was shocked. "V Nickel!" I said out loud. I checked for a date. 1906! "Wow!" I said. I looked in the hole again to make sure there was more in there but there was nothing else. After detecting for 30 more minutes, I found 2 more items: A 1953 D wheat cent and something for a TV (what I'm guessing). After I got home, I quickly put the V Nickel in a holder and then I got to thinking. Why was a V Nickel and a wheat cent doing back there in those woods? Either way, I was still happy that I dug up that Nickel.
