Sure was a awesome feeling finding them..i kind of sat there looking around for a minute or so thinking about the person who dropped it so long ago...i had a hard time trying to see the 1892 date, potatoe method really did an excellant job on it..hope the 1875 one comes out just as good...
 

Nice group of finds, I am still waiting for my first IH, It will come... I hope ;) HH

Poison Sumac?...............down here in carolina.....i don't step a foot in the woods...during the heat of summer...our snipes, poison ivy, poison oak, chiggers, and ticks keep me far away....i never had Poison Sumac...........but i ain't waitin to have it either....


good finds.

Congrats coterie on your first IH. I imagine that you were as excited as I was last week when I found my first, an 1885, that rang up as a screw cap on my M6. ??? Just never know what the next signal will reveal. Good job H.H.

Took me a year to find my 2nd IH, and you got 2 in one outing! I can't tell from the pic (no offense meant), but I hope your '75 is in even better shape than the '92, because the former is about 10 times the value - a G-4 grade 1875 is $20.

Cool finds!
 

Very nice finds. I would grid that place and dig everything that acted like it wanted to beep, lol...Congrats on the great finds!

Congratulations on your First IH. I love finding them. I don't find a lot of them but I was fortunate to find an 1875 also. That is a better date.

Congrats on the two IH's and some other nice finds. Poison Summac I have had and it is not fun glad you are over yours. I still haven't found my first IH yet but I am sure that I will be thrilled like everyone else when it happens. Keep posting and HH.

Great finds... I know how excited I was when I found mine a couple weeks ago... Did you do the "I found something great" dance???

I LOVE THIS HOBBY...
