Toasted or not... it counts. You are doing quite well getting some missed keepers from this park.

A shield nickel is a coin that has eluded most people, including myself.

It seems like they are often toasted, such is the nature of a nickel that has been in the ground for more than 130 years.

Great find anyway! thumbsup01
