Metal Detecting
The wife is sick with strep throat so needless to say we couldn’t go anywhere and I had no Thanksgiving yet. So I went detecting while my Queen slept. I went to the 1820’s house better known lately as the iron field. Needless to say I found my war nickel on the last dig. Got a Paul Revere Insurance Co. token, old spoon and key hole and tins of iron. I was a true war. 7EA451CA-CD36-4427-8A64-E19B39B44EA5.jpegAA371D4D-4EDF-4EB0-9F84-F11BF8DED3B0.jpeg29AC88D6-2686-4338-982D-5933170346FE.jpeg3D376453-9488-40D4-B31B-570913218136.jpegE0967F26-C00D-4C40-A046-3B3808E1F4C0.jpeg

Thanks A2 hope you got a full belly
 

Looks like your thinning down the iron field, you may find some better goodies next time thru.:laughing7:
 

Cool token!!! That’s from my home town (kinda) thank god you found a nickel , I was getting worried(:
 

Nice find Truth. I'll almost bet that the number on top is someone's policy number, otherwise why would it say to drop in a mailbox and return ? That's way better than the piece of paper that I receive in the mail for my death insurance policy. Hope the Mrs. is better soon.
 

Good trip, I keep an eye on our nickels in the register. Way better luck finding a war nickel than any other silver coin, most people aren't aware that war nickels have silver.
