The Stack of Old Nails is a Geraldo's Shop item in Bloons TD 6. The Stack of Old Nails is an on-track projectile which deals 1 Sharp damage and has a pierce of 10. They can pop Camo Bloons. At level 13 they are upgraded to deal 6 damage, and at level 16 they are further upgraded into Nail Mines which have the Normal damage type, deal +6 Ceramic damage, +1 Fortified damage, and have 24 pierce. Furthermore Nail Mines explode upon exhausting their pierce, dealing 10 Explosion damage with 40 pierce, with +2 Ceramic damage and +1 Fortified damage. Nail Mines' explosion also applies a burn damage-over-time effect which deals 1 damage every 2 seconds, for 6 seconds.
