Very nice, is the date on the silver IH 1804? I have found several IN pennies at a sight I have found but I did not know that some could be silver. What dats do the silver IH run? I might have some but did not know any could be silver. Anyone? Thats awsome find, good luck on more in that area.

Hello, Dreadnox. Indian Head Cents were minted from 1859-1909 and were made of copper-nickel and later bronze. The silver coin that you see is a Mercury Dime and they were minted from 1916-1945. A great way to learn more about old coins is to get the latest copy of Whitman's "A Guide Book of United States Coins". It's a great resource for IDing the US coins that you may find while detecting.

You're really starting to rack up the coin count Sovereignelite. Congrats on the IH and your 38th silver.

Argent come on down to Austin I take you were there are bunches of IH's. I found an old trading post sight and its great for them and I found an 1884 Morgan there to so probably more around. Going to start looking for artifacts as soon as the heat lets up down here.
