Nickel trifecta, flat Stander and fried Large Cent

[skierbob]

Went to the thawed-out area where I found a Walker last week. This is an overgrown wooded area that used to be part of an amusement park. First find was a flat Standing Liberty Quarter about 7 inches deep. Then I started finding nickels. Altogether there were nine. There was one V Nickel, four Buffalos and four Jeffersons, two of which were silver "War Nickels". In between I also found three wheaties and a totally fried Large Cent.

Warning: These coins are all in miserable shape.

I'll begin with a couple shots of the area I hunted:

That sounds like a very exciting place to hunt, Bob! I wonder how much you would really find if all that overgrowth were cleared?

Congrats on some nice finds!!

OUCH​

I know the feeling lately, nice getting any coin, but I am one who prefers quality over quantity and sure like it when all posts ones that are decent and feel the pain when they are toasted or worn out and toasted. But, you had a good number of finds despite condition, so congrats.

You know there has to be some more silver in there, maybe not as flat! That Stander is the flattest one I've ever seen (except for a Seated I found that's almost a mirror!) Can't wait to see what else you pull out of there.
