I'm getting tired of finding D!!N nickels!

[Oldrvrrat57]

Hit a homesite today and hunted a couple of hours and came out with more nickels and 1 wheaty , the silver looking coin I thought at first it was a half dime, turned out to be a Uncle Sam play penny dated 1950. This brings me to a total of 10 shield nickels in less than 2 weeks! Where's the silver!!

I would love to dig some shield nickels.
I feel your pain on that play money. Those have fooled me too. It’s just not fair! 🤪

If those nickels are annoying you, I can come dig them up for you.

Nice finds, IMO.

Keep digging those nickels and soon a gold ring will come out and make you forget about silver. (at least for a little while!)
Another possibility and yes it has happened to me....you dig a nickel and there's a dime sandwiched to it.
