You just barely made it into 1800! That's a real nice one with lots of detail. You have good dirt. Gary

My first 1800s coin was exactly like yours,an 1898 IHC. It was bittersweet because when I showed all my finds to the property owner, they said I could have it all except for that Indian. I was so devstated......

Welcome to the 1800's club. I dig all solid signals and most that may vary by 1 or 2 digits.

First time in the 19th century and it’s a IH Cent AND it’s not corroded!!! Boy o boy you are officially hooked. I remember my first 1800’s coin and man did the game change. Enjoy it, look at it and love it. It’s like your first love you’ll never forget it. Congratulations gold boy!!!!!!!!!

That's great I remember my first 1800s it was a Canadian quarter than an Indian then a spill of 5 Injins then a 1876 seated quarter I almost needed a diaper. Seems after the first they started rolling in . Great diggings my friend!!!!!!

So, a guy I hunt with has had two requests for an IHP from the property...idk what it is but people love them.

He's still looking for one, and I'm still after a buffalo.

Took me until earlier this year to find my first 1800s US coin. Now I've got a couple handfuls. Nice job!!
