Twitch Silver Member Feb 1, 2010 2,877 2,335 Missouri May 13, 2013 #7 OK that's pretty cool. Took me a double take to figure out exactly what that was. Very cool.
M minkybodl Sr. Member Aug 19, 2011 392 123 May 14, 2013 #8 Nice find. Like BB said besides it being a 1913 raised mound, it is a Hobo nickel. Been looking for one of those through a lot of nickels now. That is a great nickel to get.
