Crusty rusty Nail with a bonus 1943 Walker!

[Squirrel322]

I haven’t found much lately and was getting discouraged so I almost didn’t go out tonight. But time came and I headed back to the park..... found +60 cents in clad (was feeling lucky for hitting two quarters).... the sun was gone and I was headed back to the car when I got a funky signal jumping around 24-32 on the Nox, dug down 5 inches and plucked out a rusty nail. The pinpointed told me something else was there, and out popped a Walker! I think the nail was on top of it.

Not the prettiest one but it’s beautiful to me





Thanks for looking!

Nice score, that nail must have protected it from prior hunters, congratulations on sniffing out that fine chunk of silver!

It’s a beautiful coin. This and the Mercury dime are 2 of my favorite designs.

Congrats on the silver! Always fun to find. Found two of those this year and both came in screaming 39 on my Nox.

Nice Squirrel! Last Walker I found was in a hole with a staple and gave off a crappy signal. You just never know!
