Popular Post devilsrenegade Posted November 25, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 25, 2019 Back to the old hobo camps along the river with my whites mxt and 10x5 detech coil , got a solid nickel signal in relic mode. I knew it would be a coin but did not expect this nice 1906 v nickel. I have included photo of where the coin was found and one looking across the valley. 18 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How'd you know its an old hobo camp? *curious* old railroad used to run through the area and transients still camp there even though it's posted no overnight camping. plus there is lots of activity from sportsmen and people recreating along the river. old fire rings make the campsights obvious, plus I detect every flat spot and around the old trees. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wiped it with a cloth and a little bacon grease. I do the same for the wheats and indians I find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneguy Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 Nice V..... (my favorite coin to dig for some weird reason?). That one held up in really good condition which is hard to find in nickels. I've only found one V in great condition like yours and it was under a spruce imbedded in deep spruce needles and not dirt....just something to keep in mind maybe????? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
