Spent about 3 hours hunting today and pulled this V nickel in ROUGH shape. I think its 1912 but im not sure.

Hey...I'll trade you lol...my one and only found V nickel is a lot uglier than yours. It came from inside this concretion, I should have left the clump together!

Any V nickel is a good V nickel!!!

Heck,all mine but maybe one are even readable!!My soil turns them red

It's either 1912 or 1942 (which would make it a one of a kind coin)

Seriously though...there is no such thing as a "crappy" V nickel. Any time you dig one of those babies, it's a good day.

Nothing to be unhappy about in that find

Congrats on the V!

I've found many worse than that!

They seem to take a beating in the ground. Though I found one in an old coin purse last year that was still silver on one side.

Finding Liberty Nickels is always a treat!

Congrats again!

Good Luck,
Mark
