First IH is my 1st 1800's coin

Hey Everyone,
I got out to the spot where I got the Joe Friday badge last month. I was walking around picking up coins here and there when out pops the 1902 Barber Dime. I'm thrilled because it's my new oldest coin. A little more hunting and I pack it up.
When I get home I dump out the finds from the pouch onto some newspaper and start to carefully clean the muck off the coins. I'm seeing a few wheaties and then That's an Indian Head! I read the date 1899, my first 1800's coin and new oldest coin. Here are some pics, thanks for looking.

Congrats on your 19th century find. Now that you broke the ice, they will start to flow.

BTW, I have not made use of my NYC permit and time is running out. I have my eye on some potentially AWESOME sites up your way so gimme a holler!!

Nice digs Glen!
I found a 1899 Indian this week also. Anything that starts with 18 is great in my book!

Sweet Barber too.

Congrats,
Mark

Thanks Mark, congrats on your IH too, good luck and HH
