I had a few unexpected days off so I was able to spend this morning hunting the site I found the flying eagle cent the other day. I haven't nicked a coin in years and today I nailed two!! Luckily I got the SLQ on her shield :lol: The nicked nickel is 1908, the SLQ is 1920, the commemorative button is 1901. Can anyone see what's on the back?
"????? NOV. CO. NEWARK NJ" Thanks!!:thumbsup01:
EDIT- It says Pryor NOVelty Co. on back.

Those are some nice finds. Haven't seen an SLQ in some time myself. The city I hunt seems to have this mentality that to preserve old parks it's best to remove the dirt and trees, then cover it in pavement like the 1947 park I recently went to. :shocked01:

Time well spent Drew :thumbsup01:
I really like the Yale button! That's a unique find! Way better than another stinking penny or shotgun brass.
Congrats! :grin:
Don't worry about the dings in the coins. It happens. You had a good run. :lol:
