The only thing that is bad is clad coins the older stuff seems fine the iron is real rusty . Cobblestone soil...I haven’t started relic hunting yet just coin shooting .

I’ve seen hundreds of V Nicks posted here on Tnet in the past ten years, maybe a thousand. I’ve never seen one “clean up” as nice as yours. What’s your secret? I’ve got maybe 20 myself, and they all look like my dog passed them.

That nickel isn't in great shape.
I sitting here wondering if I should get up & look at my "V",s , I've found over the years it's a handful.

 

[beanflippinclint]

I know I found them that’s all that counts ....I even have pic’s of the dig butt and it’s a big butt now I WONT SHOW THEM ....NOT SURE IF I CAN POST ANYTHING NOW .the trust has been broke,now I will never be believed....so I’ll read because it’s good stuff here....I’ll post finds if I do somewhere else..there’s no real digging going on for the next 5-6 months here anyways...snow .both nickels are real nickels dug from the ground in north idaho in nov 2023 if u can’t beleave or handle it sorry for u . To tell u the truth to write this sucks. I hate fighting over little shit ,two shitty v nickels worth 1.00
I was so proud of myself finding two when I never even held one before the first thing I could think of is how proud the boys will be to see this ,also found a gold ring ,and a silver ring and a Barber dime and a standing liberty quarter,1938 dog tags ,1900’s homes with full access just might bring up some finds that even I won’t believe .it been a fun month . And I won’t let this fu— my good luck up. Even though it makes me sad.
