Gotta get a better camera or put it into macro mode. Nice tho on finding your first V. See, even here it can play tricks on you looking almost like 1969...which is obvi impossible for a V.

Congrats on your first V Nickel! :clapping:

I personally haven't had much luck with using olive oil to clean coins, it seems to have no effect. There is actually a very good thread about cleaning nickels here:
