...unfortunately neither were silver lol.
If you read Cjon455's post from yesterday, you know we got out for a day long hunt at some permissions. He had another very good day...mine, well, not so good. Did get a first though ~ a broken little cast Indian and pony. Would have been very nice if it had been whole. The " V " is my youngest one found so far...I have an 1899 and a 1902 besides this 1907. Perfect nickel signal on the ATP - a repeating 51. Oh, the other nickel was just a 1970 Jefferson. Thanks for looking!

Thanks DI2, but Chris is the only one of us that's been tearing it up.

As soon as I saw the reins guide, I thought of you!

Thanks PoE...I really wish it wasn't broken. I was surprised it still had so much paint.

Spoken like a true youngster. Just keep not using one and you will need more than a pad. ;)

Great finds Dave! The V Nickel is very nice. I don't find them that clean. The toy and reigns guide are awesome as well

I like that stuff OD. You dug a nice reign guide there. Now, you can't say you don't even have 2 nickels to rub together-LOL. WTG, Q.
 

Great looking V nickel! The Indian & horse are a neat find! Congrats!

CJon- just wit till you see what he got you to keep the ticks off, pink tights! Oh...wasn't I supposed to tell? Oooops! :laughing7:
 

Thanks for showing. But I think don't that your Indian/pony is very old because, to me anyway, the Indian looks like a
" Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle ". :)
