Well guys I had to go back and give it one more swing before work and I got my first shield nickel. I believe I’m seeing 1877. I wish these dates were easier to read. Any tips on getting a better read let me know. Thanks for sharing in my joy [emoji1317] IMG_2539.webpIMG_2540.webp

UPDATE!! My friend tokensmith just brought to my attention that mine has the rays.... I didn’t even realize it. I must be losing mind lol my appreciation to him.....so officially I have to say it’s a 1867 Shield Nickel with Rays!!!

Feels like I just had a child
