    A First for me!!

    I thought I had posted but can't find my post so if this is a repeat sorry....I went out to a church/soccer field today and found a 1899 V Nickel 5.5 inches down cut a plug and I was right on the mark bc the nickel come right out on top. I knew it was reading as a nickel reading. What a surprise to me when I seen the V on the back and I also found a 1956 wheatie penny. <: I't has been a long time since I have found any oldies and I believe the V is my oldest. Snickers
