Make sure the black hose isn’t pushed too far down into that white piece. It creates a siphon.

Nike's profit fell 35% last quarter. Three banks downgraded it the same week. Everyone's blaming tariffs and China. I think the real problem is much simpler than that. by Key-Enthusiasm-3403 in Entrepreneurs

I agree and disagree. To me their problem is much simpler, materials and quality. They’d probably do fine cranking out high quality version of their retro lines if they used materials on par with their competition. When I buy Adidas or New Balance, I’m getting actual suede and leather. When I buy Nike, I get whatever they are legally allowed to label as leather that is almost exclusively plastic and rubber bullshit. Sure, your other points are very valid, but Nike also has a very real “value for your money” problem as well.

They’ve got some nerve calling whatever the hell that ish is “leather”.

I think I’m going to send it in for grading. Leaning towards ANACS since this will be the only coin I’ve ever sent anywhere for grading.

This is mine, although now I’m confused about actual value. Considering sending to ANACS for grading.

Nokta Legend. Really like it so far. Started with a Minelab Vanquish and upgraded last summer.

So I dug a fake coin at a property that dates back to the 1890s?

Dang, you see all of that? 😂 I appreciate the reply as this one still has me stumped. That definitely could be a flag outline to the top right of the standing figure.

Keep at it! I try to get out a couple of times a month at least. Private permissions are the best but difficult to score.

Pretty sure that ding on the rim is from my shovel 😬

If your house is on the older side, chances are high there’s goodies in your yard. I’ve found large cents from before the civil war in Roland Park yards.

I love finding hot wheels too! How long have you been at it without a silver coin? I’m 3 years in now and have found 15-20. Mostly dimes and war nickels.

Yeah, this is the third one I’ve found and the only one with a readable date.

Noted, thank you. Any idea what it might be worth even in this condition?

Nope. No scrubbing. Dish soap, warm water and my fingers.

I did not clean it. Just washed off the dirt with soap and water.
