Another First

[BLK HOLE]

So I got out to my 1920’s permission this morning and got me my very first war nickel! I was hunting near the rear of the house and got a very small midtone, so I shoved the leaves aside and dug a good size plug (I prefer to dig big plugs in the wood so I don’t damage the target), took my pointer to the plug and pulled a .32 cal shell casing, when I swept around the hole I got a solid midtone and a intermittent high tone, poked around a bit and pulled a Jefferson nickel and a wheat penny, pulled a bit more dirt out and there was another nickel. I had a feeling that it was a war nickel (1942) as it was shiny and all other coins that come out of our soil turn cruddy Brown/red. My fur face buddy stood by to watch. The rest of my finds were a couple more wheaties, some clad,a pocket knife and some assorted odds and ends. Happy Hunting!!

Great find! I seem to find them pretty often. Lots of people skip over those weird low tones. It pays to dig it all!

Sweet, now wouldn’t it be nice if it could talk and tell you the circumstances under which it came to be where you find it.

What mint Mark is it?
