Woohoo!

Today I went to a spot that's produced really well, have gotten a silver ring, a gold ring, 11 wheaties, and my first and only Mercury dime. This time I scored a 1928 Buffalo Nickel!!! :hello2:

The date is nearly worn off but otherwise in okay condition. Also found a 192? wheatie with the last number worn away. Plus a watchface, hot wheels motorcycle, 3 early 1900s shotgun shells, 3 spoons, 3 keys, and an old bottle of eyeliner.

And I've only done about 1/4 of the place so far! :icon_sunny:

Thanks! Yeah, for sure there's more good stuff.

I just found out from internet searching that one of my keys is for the Ford Model T, made between 1908 and 1927!

You go, guy! Congrats on the 1928 Buffalo Nickel and the Model T key! Haven't noticed any other Model T keys since I started reading t-net posts early last fall. Please post pics of nickel and key so we can see & enjoy them! Andi, aka Yo Mama
