    Is the 1912 a key date?

    That would have been nice if that was a 1912-s key date. Still nice find!

    Too bad it ain't got an "S" on the reverse.

    Dang, you'd think it would, bein' found in your neck o' the woods!

    Ah, well. Still fun to find. image

    i've dug several 1912 nickles, who knows maybe one of them has an "S". of all all my V's this one is probably the nicest looking. typically they come out in bad condition.

    I've dug some stinky lookin' ones myself, including a 1912 or two (clearly without S's).

    One or two I have found were decent, but most are crusty critters when dug.
