For anyone who needs the instruction, when you look down
in a deep hole and you can recognize the coin as a nickel, AND
it's shining up at ya like this one. You know what you got. ;)

I've only ever found one silver nickel detecting in over a decade - yours is one of the higher grade ones I've seen as a dug coin .

Sure you have! If you've ever seen 'em after a bit of baking soda and water rubbin' :)
That war nickel is not going ANYwhere else but in my display. AND, I like to see them nice and shiny! :)

This one came out pretty shiny, I just helped a bit afterwards. I figured it deserved a bit of pampering. ;)

Anyone notice those lil black spots? Did they ever include a bit of iron in the mix? :icon_scratch:
