One little, two little...seventeen little Indians

[cheffer]

Back to a most bizarre old road near the ski slope where I've now picked up a total of seventeen Indian Head pennies (nine more this morning).



Dates range from 1866 through 1906, but most of them in a tight span of 1890s to early 1900s. Not quite sure what was happening here, no other find except modern trash. Anyone else come across areas like this? Seems strange to me...

Happy hunting!

Crazy digs man! Perhaps the traveling Snake Oil Salesman sold them some "bad" fire water and they all succumbed to it kinda' like Jonestown? However they got there good on you for gathering up a quick hoard of way cool green coppers.

You'd have to try to find the history of the place to figure out the use of the land back in the day.
Possibly fill dirt, in which case you'll never know.

Nice spot you got there.

was it a spot that attracted people back in the day.. some sort of natural recreational spot...I've been working modern one and it's paying off big time...awesome haul....just amazing.

never argue with success, especially when it involves awesome finds. the imagination can run wild but we will never really know why or how come. congrats on the sweet finds
