Wed I started off at a place I've never been to before. It was pretty much a wide open area and it was getting hot an humid by the time I got there. I started off just wondering around and that didn't last long before that sun was really getting to me.
I could see over to the south end of this place there was a huge old oak tree and it was casting big shade area so I headed for that tree. I worked that big shade area and found a Merc, a Rosie and 4 wheat's. That was it for the shade area's at this
place so I hit the road. The next place I was at was a old school that I've been to before, about 4 years ago and I did pretty good there the last time I was there. Also, this place had a lot of shade tree's. Right away I noticed that there was not alot
of trash so I started really working those low tones in hopes of finding some older nickels and it paid off. My first nickel was a 43P war nickel, then the 1897 V nickel and just before I got done working the shade area's there I found the 1927 Buff,
I also found 1 wheat penny there. After that I went to there city park and it had alot of trash there but I did manage to find 2 more wheat's. By then it was getting way to hot and humid even in the shade so I went home.
I'm not very good at finding those older nickels so yesterday was a very good day for me with finding the nickel Trifecta.
thanks for lookin and HH
