I was shocked to see a V nickel given back in change at the gas station, but I think I scored pretty darn good on this one! It's not very pretty but you can still make out the s mint mark. Whatcha think if it's a 1912 s it's gotta lil value right? I want second opinions before I get too excited lol

Best to post full obverse and reverse pics. Necessary when determining authenticity and grade.

Looks correct to me from these photos. G Details, ED. Heck of a score for only 5 cents. If it were me I'd be going right back to that gas station to see what else might be hiding there.

Full coin pics are in order, but it looks good so far.

I would be stoked just to get a Buffalo nickel in my change, let alone a key date V nickel! Sweet find, hope your luck keeps rolling!

Great find!

In the century (or maybe it just seems that way) since COVID started, I can't even remember the last time I had a cash transaction.

Thank you all! This really brought back my interest in coins, like a lot of others I've been doing mostly everything electronically, but imma get some rolls and get back to it!
Rest in Peace

Go back to that gas station and ask if they have more of those.
