It's really hard to say which is my favorite coin but this is the rarest and most valuable one I found this year, it's a keydate V nickel. The case it's in is an old compact my brother handed me one day when we were out detecting, he said all the parts are here, well the rivet was the only thing on it that was corroded so I put a screw from a camcorder in it.
That's a cool find Larry. thumbsup01 Most of my V nickels are pretty rough, but once in a while I get a good one.

thats in super shape for a v-nickle Larry but being a key date one makes it a great find for surecongrats thumbsup01
