War Nickel,wheats, Lost our honey hole!

[campnagle]

Our silver finding place has been fenced off. Been pulling great stuff for years there. It was barracks for WW 2 fighter pilot training then turned city housing, Going to be hard finding silver now. Anyway I saw people flipping a house and they let me hit the property, 5 wheat's, A 42' S War nickel, old earring with stones, old skate key and clad. All the war nickels I find are covered in black tar looking stuff?

Nice bunch of finds. The sites I hunt seem to give up several war nickels a year and I can usually tell immediately that they are a war nickel. Usually ample silver showing right off. Some are stained and don't clean up perfect, but with some work I can usually get most of the crud off. Yours must have been in some gunky type of ground. Still fun finding them. HH jim tn
