1st V Nickel of the year!

[always diggin]

I went out today for a short hunt. The park I hunted has one of those darn cell towers right next to it. Have to run low sensitivity or my detector just goes nutts! It was 5- 5 1/2 inches deep rang in as a 42-43 on the F44. settings were 14 sens 58 ground balance, in jewelry mode. Was very happy with finding it even if it is pretty toasted. I believe it is a 1888 (?) (due to health problems) just being able to get out was nice. Thanks for looking!

I'll second the 1899. My first old coin was a V, so I love seeing them turn up no matter who finds them. Keep it up, it's good for your health.

How do you separate the v-nickels from the pull tabs? I still haven't figured that one out. 7up
