pulled some nice keepers this morning on my day off. my 3rd LC of the year and nicest in condition. My first Canadian LC. (1918) Two Shields stuck together in one hole! (1867, 1874) plus an 1896 V that was a nice surprise too. The 1881 IH looked toasted at first but peroxide took most of it off. Also, another first....2 rings stuck together! you can see in the dirty pic before I removed the small gold plated one from the inside of the big silver ring. not sure what I have with the #32 on it but I took a pic of the back in case anybody can ID it. Found some neat relics too. The nice old fella that lived at one of the places gave me the horseshoe, the hood latch and the window turner that he had found around the yard. Anyway it was a beautiful day out and had a great time. Thanks for looking all HH, Griff

Griff , Don't you just love those OLD yards!!!!!!!!!!!Some unique finds for sure,and a LOT of em! God Bless HH Chris
 
Super finds, those shield nickles are in great shape :thumbsup: I would bet that the "32" came off of a kids toy like a fire engine or a bicycle maybe.

Awesome finds Griff!
Super nice shield nickels!
 
wow! those were some great yards :headbang: :headbang: :headbang:
 
Looks like a nice hunt to me, well done :icon_thumright:
 
My shield nickles never come out that good, and to find 2 in one day, or week? is a very good score,
congrats :headbang:
 
A bunch of keepers! Thanks for sharing the loot.

Those are really nice Shield nickels. I think they need just a little more time in hot peroxide. The horizontal lines in the shields are starting to show, and I'm think they may be more complete, which would affect the overall grading significantly.
