Hi all,
Hope everyone is having a great 2018! The Michigan weather allowed me to start the new season a few weeks ago and I thought I'd share some finds from the last few days. My second hole of the season was a 1946 Rosie so I was hoping it was a good sign. The first IH is an 1884 kinda...
First 1800s coin. First Indian Head cent. Oldest coin. I am finally starting to make some good finds at the old farm site. I went out last week and found the 1915 D wheatie and tags. The top tag is an elastic (sewing) tag and the bottom tag is from, I think, a money belt from the 1910s-40s...
I found three Indian head pennies yesterday: 1869, 1886, and 1903. Unfortunately the 1869 and 1886 cents are badly corroded, but the dates are still readable.
The 1869 and 1903 pennies were found by running my Ryedale for a second pass over the rejects from 50 boxes of pennies with a 2005 zinc...
