It's really hard to say which is my favorite coin but this is the rarest and most valuable one I found this year, it's a keydate V nickel. The case it's in is an old compact my brother handed me one day when we were out detecting, he said all the parts are here, well the rivet was the only thing on it that was corroded so I put a screw from a camcorder in it.

That's a cool find Larry. thumbsup01 Most of my V nickels are pretty rough, but once in a while I get a good one.

That is a sharp looking V.

This year was the first I started to pull V's... I like it almost as much as pulling silver... almost. :rolleyes:

It came from the spot where a bunch of houses got torn down my brother and I nicknamed the trashpit out in Battle Creek.
