Shield nickel in Minnesota!!! That's tough. I found one here 20 years ago

That's my 2nd shield nickel this year. The first was a 1873 from a public park

Nice finds! Looks like the soil is very friendly to the metals also.

The pin looks like an advertising piece according to the info on the back. Nice finds.

That shield is in super condition! I believe the "oilpull" piece is a watch fob.......
