This Morning New E-Trac * 1887 V Nickel * Sidewalk Tear Out *

I got a new E-trac yesterday and took it out for a few minutes last night and then again this morning. Its like 90-100 degrees here now... I love this thing!
I was driving to an old armory here in my town and saw a piece of side walk in the old part of our town that was torn out. I stopped and whipped out the new E-Trac and quickly went over this small old area. I found a few misc items and then a very crusty nickel. It rang up a solid 12/12 on the E-Trac. Got it home (very, very crusty) but can see that it is a V nickel dated 1887... Sweet!

Great find with your new machine. Hope it's the first of many. I have not done a sidewalk tear out yet.
