Hi All,

I got out this past weekend for some cold hunting. Anyways not to many keepers, but got a few. The 1890 V Nickel was the first of the keepers. A little while later I dug the 1902 Indian Head penny. A little while later out popped the watch part. I had planned to leave in about 15 minutes and I got this kind of funky deep tone. It sounded good enough to dig and at 8 inches out came this gold like Eagle thing and called it a day after that dig. After cleaning up the finds the gold like eagle thing has me intrigue. I am not sure what it is, so if anyone knows would be great to hear. It does measure from wing tip to wing tip 17.5mm. Overall not a bad hunt. Thanks for reading and looking:icon_thumleft:.

Thanks, I too love the Eagle, I knew it wasn't real old but had a lot of gold gilt left.

Thanks It is my third V nickel of the year, I do enjoy digging them and shield nickels too. Your nickels are out there, go get them :icon_thumleft:
 

Great finds- love the ruptured duck. I still have my Grandfathers pin from his service in the USAAF in WW2.
 

A very nice trio of cold weather finds there! :icon_thumleft:
