Since I've had such luck with the new detector at sites I've already pounded, I headed back to the big park in town. I didn't have much time, so I picked a stretch I'd already hunted about 50 yards in length. Some clad on the way down and on the way back up to the car in succession '45 Merc, undated Buffalo and 1868 Shield Nickel.

I went home quite happy and this park better get ready for pounding in the coming weekends. lol Funny thing is that this is my first buff nickel but my third shield nickel...I've never do things in order. Still looking for that V nickel.

Those nickels are amazing! 75% of the Jeffersons I dig are in much worse shape. Congrats!
