Boy Scout Camp finds

pacer · Aug 21, 2018

Went to a old no longer in use Boy Scout Camp today. Found 26 coins total to include a 1906 V nickel, 1943 S war nickel, no date Indian Head nickel and a Boy Scout button that read "Be Prepared"

Nice button. I’m sure they’re common, but I’ve never seen one like it. Good finds

Wow, the V nickel is in amazing shape
better than the newer nickels. Congrats
on all the amazing finds.

That V nickle was a lot of money to a kid back then!!

Nice assortment. That V is sweet. Congrats

Thanks for all the nice comments. The excitement on my face when I realized what I had found was undeniable. I found it in the center of a old camp site and was no more than 1" deep. It rang up at a 13 on my Nox. As soon as my hunting buddies realized what I had found, they couldn't swing their coils fast enough in the same area. Unfortunately the camp site didn't give anything else up.

Glad you liked the in-field photo. Here is another photo providing what the area looks like.
