Hi all. Hope your day was as good as mine. Last week while trying to get permission at a couple nice old farm houses, I met the daughter of one of the owners. She volunteered her house to me and when I asked her how old it was, she told me it was built in 1832. I was able to go this morning for the first time. Beautiful old house that is very well maintained and she and her husband share it with their 2 very young sons. Great people! Anyway, My first target of the day was an Indian. The last target ( yep, on the way back to the car! ) was an Indian. The good stuff was in between lol. I got a few firsts out of the way ~ a Barber dime, Barber quarter and a beautiful ornate little buckle that I believe is a knee buckle. Hope you more knowledgeable members will enlighten me. Looks like the oldest IH of the 4 I got is an 1864 ( my oldest IH! ). Hope you enjoy the pics. BTW, I only did the front yard and one side yard in 3 1/2 hours so hopefully I can return and find some more!

A big high 5 on those Barbers and the IH's. I love finding CW era IH's.
