Hit the driveway today to do a little MDing. Just before dark I got a strong $.05/PT. I had already dug up a few tabs. I was prepared to continue cleaning the trash from the driveway. Anyoo, I dug up a 1964 nickel 
Now, I have been MDing my butt off and found several 65, 66, and newer dimes and quarters![:-\](https://www.treasurenet.com/smilies/undecided.gif "Undecided :-\")
Many memorials and wheaties, but, so far no silver I came into the house and was discouraged by the taunting year of my oldest nickel thus far At any rate, I was telling my wife about my crummy nickel and the crummy dimes and how I long for silver from the ground 
If not from a silver mine then some coins would be just fine instead.
I decided I would come to the computer and sit down to tell my crummy nickel story, and in fact, I have done just that. The story however is not over 
As I was just sitting down and logging in to tell my story my son asks of me, "Hey, dad. Is this fake?"
Of course I asked him what it was and he handed me this.......a 1943 S mint wartime nickel....
Sorry for the pic. I used my neighbor's 5.0 Mp Canon and this is the best I could get. Any suggestions for a better close-up would be appreciated. Thanks for looking!!
If he hadn't sold some candy to a girl at school we would not be looking at the particular specimen. I got onto him about that.....
and he gave me the nickel 
....I love that kid.....
