Toasted IH and "V" nickle

I stopped off for a quick hunt after a trip to the Doctor. I have a degenerated disc in my neck affecting my left arm also.. a lot of tingling and weakness. I'm right handed but swing with my left. I headed to a spot in this past that gave up a couple of wheaties before along with some trash indicating an old home site..I've found old fruit jar lids.. zinc and white glass lids. Dealing with the pain score me two toasted coins.. The first was a "V" nickle then a 1903 IH.. The "V" may be a 1901 hard to make out for sure right now. I also found an old spoon and a shot shell base that I haven't cleaned up yet. The ground dry and hard now. I'll head back there when the ground is softer and I'm more able to detect..
 
Tough soil they look like the v’s I find lol and Indians but I did find a mint 1898 indian
 
It was cool finding them where I did. I knew I had an IH when I saw that olive green patina.It was almost 8" and came in just a little above nickle VID 12-14 for the IH and I believe 12-10 for the "V" nickle. I'll hit it after a good soaking rain.. there should be some deep silver there
