Congrats on the old coin! :occasion14:

That 5x8 coil works great in trashy areas! :icon_thumleft:
 
Very Nice!!! Congrats!!!
 
I have determined that it's an 1866, (first year) with rays. I wish the date was more readable to see if it's over-stamped but I can just see the 6 under magnification.
 
Nice nick! Congrats! :icon_thumleft: That one is still on my bucket list.
 
Nice old Shield nickel. A hard one to get your coil over. WTG
 
Congrats on your first Shield Nickel. That one is in better shape than my first one, that's for sure !
 
The AT Pro is a rock star, I did very well with that machine when I owned one. Congratulations!
 
Nice shield! Always a rush to find those early production years. HH!
 
Pretty nice shield, congratulations on the save.
