Like new war nickel

I got out yesterday for my usual afternoon hunt at one of my favorite parks nearby by. First, I found a penny spill. All 80's and 90's memorials except for one. They were all on the surface just under the leaves. I was pleasantly surprised to see a wheatie laying there! A 1925 no less! happydance02 I suppose it could have been part of the modern spill. I'll take it regardless. lol Then I found the axe head under the rock in the pic. First one I ever found too. It looks fairly old to me.

I was finding plenty of pull tabs and bottlecaps as usual. Then I hit a nice nickel signal. I thought it was a regular Jeff until I rubbed it and saw the big P on the back. Cool a silver War nickel. Mission accomplished! I romped around in the woods for a bit longer but found nothing great. The bus token was my last decent find of the hunt.

Thanks for looking and as usual happy hunting! :groovy:

PS. I forgot to add the other cool find of the hunt...a 3 ringed bullet. This is my first one. I wasn't too far away from the axe head. Pic is at the bottom.

That ax head does look pretty old, and you don't come across too many of them war nickles...nice finds :clapping:
 
Wow! A war nickel, a wheatie, a token, and a three ringer that was actually fired, not just dropped! :omg: what an awesome outing. :wow: :perfect10:
