Where the buffalo roam...

[Ray in CA]

I took a half hour this morning to hit a spot near the railroad tracks in town, and found a 1935 Buffalo nickel within a 10 feet square area where I had previously found two Washington state tax tokens from the same date. It must have been a small pocket spill that got spread out over time. The nickel was down about 6" and I was in relic mode. My Safari first gave me a +13 and +14 value and then quickly jumped between +12 and +18. Any time I get a +13 or +14 I know I have to dig.

I'm not sure what the other thing is, which was found about 5 feet from the nickel. It has that old intricate design and came in at +37, which means it is made out of copper.

HH,

Ray
