Many more on a rotating basis.
Park Ranger and Pack Mule pouches by Freeloader!
Great condition on those.

I have dug 4 or 5 in the last 20 years, and they are usually so corroded that I am lucky to ID them with a date.

one nickel has a lot of detail on it - any dates on them??

- the rest of the coins, oldies? do I see a religious medal??
all that stuff counts, too!

I've found only one V-Nickle before, in the nine years I've been detecting,
so two-in-a-row is GOOD luck...!
really GOOD FINDS! :thumbsup:

Alas the rest was all clad, couple 67's and one wheat. The religous medal says "pray for us" icon can't be made out, probably Mary. The small piece is silver and says AES. Also a button, buckshot, and whatsit. All clad found about 300' from first site in a 50x50 area.

Excellent hunt,, that clad haul causes a lot of "UP AND DOWN CRAMPS " lol
Pretty good detail on one of those V nickels.
Congrats
