Found my first V last night in a cornfield that has no doubt been hit with some heavy fertilizer as it was green and toasted,also the same place where I found the toasted US large cent. I'm glad I was able to make out the year,1906 and her face. Two .69 caliber flank a much smaller .50 caliber Smith carbine bullet. Sorry about the sideways picture.

next she will probably dig up stonewall jackson's personal effects locker!

Yeah that's on the buckler list Jeff,haha! Truly I need to get in an area where old coins can be found but not in a cornfield because I've figured out coins do not fare well there. Tne mister found a V nickel last month and aside from being a little worn his was not nearly as corroded as mine.

:icon_thumleft: Awesome! The nickle looks like it is still in pretty good condition, it just needs a careful cleaning.
