Nickel surprise

[Bjorn_MD]

Nothing much to write home about, but I thought I'd share with you all anyway.

My wife and I went out to a park on the Chesapeake and sifted out 1 penny, 1 dime, and 1 nickel.

And a second nickel badly corroded. Took it home, cleaned it out a little, and saw the large P on the back, yey.
This morning I made out the data which turned out to be a 1942. So my first partial silver of the year.

Not too much of a surprise but welcome anyhow.

Congrats on your find!!

 

[Bjorn_MD]

Yes, Sandy Point. Never detected there so I wanted to see what it was like.

I'll be back out soon. Just securing a permit now for Baltimore City Parks, did some research on some areas of the parks to hit that may be worthwhile.
