Old Nickle Trifecta, 11 Keeper Coins & My Firstt Gold Ring (sort of)

[Loco-Digger]

Took the day off to dirt fish. I went back to the site I hunted last Saturday with my Brother-In-Law. I re -detected the front yard since the leaves, nuts, and twigs were raked to the curb. Started on the side my B-I-L hunted. Pulled both silvers (42 Merc & 42P OD nickle) , a 1900 IHP, four wheats (1940 x 2, 41, & 55), a memorial, the token, gold ring, 3 buttons, pocket knife, brass drain plug, & the green oval thing in the picture. BOY I'M GLAD HE'S A ROOKIE

Then I went to the part I detected last week and pulled the 1904 V nickle, 1929 Buffalo, 1888 IHP, 1916 wheat, a lead seal, 3 sinkers, cut bullet, a NY City Button Works military button, a memorial and the clad quarter was a surface find.

The Spoon handle, pocket watch and threaded silver looking piece came from the side yard.

This has been the best front yard I have ever hunted (virgin grounds).

Amazing how many War Nickels get found over regular ones from the silver era.
Beautiful pic btw! And that token is great!

WTG Loco, glad you are having such a great hunting season... I have to buckle down and ask some permissions, virgin land is the best!

Great stuff Loco. Congrats on the gold ring! Nice to find, broken or not. My only gold ring find is similar to yours, mine is complete, but is cracked through at the back.

It's gold alright, missing a piece, but still stoked It has taken me 16 months to find a gold ring.

16 months to find a gold ring!? I think I would go mad! To be fair I haven't found one lately, you beat me so far this month anyway.

 

[against the wind]

Quite a variety. Congrats on the gold, silver, and your trifecta.

A lot of nice finds there. Congrats on the nickel trifecta. I love digging old nickels, I just wished they held up better in the soil. Looks like you lucked out with dates on the V and buffalo.
