Coins found in last few days

Been hitting this park around a lake in NW Florida for a few days and found these. The best is 1906 Victory nickel. Pretty bad shape but I like it, first one for me. Found lots of clad also.

No mold , just dirty, I dont want to scratch my coins so I just rinse them off.
Some come cleaner than others.

Good job on the older nickels! The V does not stand for victory, it refers to 5 cents as in the Roman numeral V meaning 5. HH -Garbageman

lol thanks dank ,
I found lots of stuff many, many pulltabs of course. Legs are sore today. Quarters, dimes and pennies also..but these were the one before 1970.. Many pennies in the 60's but didnt put them in the pic.
Also thanks Gman. I was not sure what the V was for, and had heard it called victory nickel before.
