Hello ALL!

Well, this is the 2nd time this year that I have nabbed 3 Indian Head Pennies in one day, from different parks this year...

I hit the park I'd been working @ 1pm this afternoon... On my previous 2 trips to the park I had used my 1:blackeye:12 SEF coil, but this park is loaded with trash in spots... The one part of the park that has yield the best finds so far is one of the trashy parts... so I put the :loveit:6 SEF Coil on my E-Trac today.

None of the 3 Indians Head Pennies were solid and obvious.

First out was this 1906... It was a bouncy signal, but in general was hitting 12/35 @ 6-7...

5 minutes later I got a 3-5 6/40 signal... I was NOT expecting another Indian Head with this signal... but you never know... This 1909 looks amazing... I can read Liberty and see most of the 4 diamonds...

The last Indian Head Penny was in the 6 range and was another bouncy signal but I was fairly sure it was another IH... 1905 was the date on the last penny...

I pulled two wheat pennies out as well... 1915 and 1941...

Nice Indians. Love the '09. sure there is no S on that one lol The E Trac does well in trash. Those cents have been passed over many times by many different machines, but it was their time to come out. Glad they made it into your collection. :yes: That '09 is real nice though thumbsup01

I was gonna ask the same :yes: on the back bottom center-right? It's so detailed, very nice. Shew, that would be 'Very Fine' $ indeed lol

If I could have HOPED an S on the back... Or crossed my arms and blinked my eyes... or twitched my nose... oh wait... I'm sure there are a few here are old enough to get the I dream of jeannie or BeWitched references...

Anywho... Under the wreath in the back... smooth and void of a mint mark :-(

But they did all clean up nicely...
