After digging for about 4 hours pulling up clad and bottle caps, I finally dug my first Indian Head. Can't complain about that condition! Still haven't broken in to the 1800's yet.. but that's for another day.
I also rate the design of Indian Head penny at the top of my list as favorite USA coins. Even more so when they look like the one posted here. Simply gorgeous.
Started with a Garrett. I think I've probably tried everything make and model from 1977, all the way to the up to the E-trac and GPX 4800.
Nothing new as for me now, I am pretty much handicapped.
Thanks everyone! My father (who's holding the coin in this pic) dug a 1903 about 5' from where this was dug. It was quite a bit crustier. It really makes me realize how lucky I was to pull one in this condition!
