My First 'V' Nickle....
Shaun7 was kind enough to pick me up & try some of his new stomping ground. Trouble was it was to overgrown with spring grass, so we tried some woods & some horse pasture.
Little did Shaun7 know that his first find (insitu shot) would be his last - 1799 halfpenny. :P
My day was only a little better with an 1888 Brewery barrell cap/stopper with wood still surviving. The brewery is long gone but the town was close by.
Towards the end of the day on the edge of a footpath to a wooded area was a 6inch deep 1899 'V' Nickle - a first & quite a surprise in this area.
Not much to speak of but a worthy scout on new land, which under the right conditions might be worth another go.
