Victory was swift but the aftermath was hell.

[Truth]

It happens ALL THE TIME!!! As soon as I got out the truck walk across the street my very first signal was a 12-13 8-9” I dug the plug and out popped a 1899 V nickel. No this has happened several times before and it’s been a curse this time was no different. Spent the next 5hrs pulling trash and 3 wheats. Next time it happens I swear I’m getting in the truck a going home.

Ok maybe not lol

 

[Joe-Dirt]

Yeah, I’d take that problem any day!

 

[montcalm]

Nice find. it happen to me many times. I started in a middle of nowhere in a big field and my first hole was the keeper of the day... Still wonder how this could be.

Lol It's raining still over here on the Southshore, so I'll text or call as soon as it quits an we can get back and hit that other spot. If nothing turns up we'll cross to the WB and hit that other spot. See ya then, and again, Congrats on ya finds, I'll post my meager nothings after today, maybe I'll have something other than those beautiful Mardi Gras doubloons to show for the day… LOL

And I’ll admit I’m spoiled with nickels, but I need a silver coin fix not all the war nickels and silver jewelry I’ve been finding, but a silver dime or something.
