First Indian Head Nickel w/3D
July 02, 2010 01:33PM
1932 and covered in green. It has been in the grd a long time. Found 2" from where i fnd SL quarters last week. Got 3 old sites Im hunting this weekend. I have a 1901 house Ive been hunting and bulldozers are tearing it down as I write this. Talked to site forman and the grd will be bare because all debris will be removed.. Couldnt hunt walls as the house was dangerous to be in or around. Foreman said come back Sat. and have at it. May go this evening. Found cloths line thanks to older lady who has lived across st. for 50 yrs. Bush hogg has grass down low. Yea baby! Any suggestions on how to clean nickel up a little? Still digging nails and some tabs but dont care! pics on TQ.

It should be a 1937 nickel. No such thing as 1932 nickel. If it is..........you can retire! I clean my nickels with a brass toothbrush (lightly)..........then nitric acid............then nic-a-date.
