It's a great day when you find a Bucket Lister. Finally found my first Shield Nickel!

Hello Everyone,

I Just finished an awesome metal detecting trip from an old historical timber town located in the Pacific Northwest. It's always a great day when you can check off bucket listers! I found my first shield nickel and also an amazing vintage silver ring. Our group found 12 silvers and lots of relics along an old sidewalk strip. This spot is pretty close to where I have found my oldest US coin to date - a 1873 Seated dime. We now call this area "Barber Blvd." due to all the barber coins pulled from it.

I uploaded the video footage to our channel. Happy hunting everyone!
