<p>[QUOTE="Mad Stax, post: 7942492, member: 79993"]Nice find! A 1911 V nickel was actually what got me into coin collecting. I used to have this little easter basket and I'd toss random foreign coins, chuck e cheese tokens and random other coins in there. So one day I decided to clean it out and get rid of the crap... and most of it was crap. But I came across a 1911 coin and I said to myself 'WOW! I wonder what country this is from..' I was pumped when I flipped it over and realized it was an old American nickel. I've been an amateur numismatist ever since! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie80" alt=":shame:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1374975[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>...and here is the oldest coin I ever found roll hunting...</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1374979[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>She has certainly seen better days but $.05 for a V nickel?

[ATTACH=full]1374979[/ATTACH] She has certainly seen better days but $.05 for a V nickel? Ya can't beat that! I am however still looking for that elusive 1913 V. Wish me luck! ;)[/QUOTE]
