Indian day. This Chief lived right and took care of himself!

Got out for a bit in the woods with DP Bob & WC. Was it ever muddy! I grabbed a '24 wheat, an old knife, fork, and spoon (different styles), and two Indians. The 1881 is somewhat pitted, but the 1887 is in great shape.

They were hiding between a tree and some rusty iron that was about 11 inches from the tree. That's why previous hunters missed them, I suppose.

No pics of the silverware this time. After I cleaned the Indians, it was dinnertime. I was using a chef knife to cut the meat I had grilled and cut down into my fingy. Nothing a butterfly & some gauze wouldn't close, but I don't want to get it wet or dirty.

That's a nice one Neil ! Sure Trumps my best find for the weekend (so far) a '13 wheatie. Been trying my best to sneak in a couple more silver while Brett's away splashing at the waterpark. he he (don't tell 'em I said that) But I did manage another pocket watch and then a clock, maybe next I'll dig a sundial or even Big Ben.

That '87 is sweet!!

You've been scoring some nice copper lately

It was fun to get out. . . even though the woods are beginning to be uncooperative :P

Some guys have all the luck with the Indians! I only found one this year so far that is in good shape, the other is toast.

Watch your fingers or you'll end up like me!
