64471644726447364474I went back to that little park yesterday and today and keep getting some good stuff from the same 100' x 50' area. The 1865 Indian is by far my oldest. The others from yesterday were 1882 and 1908. Out of the 11 wheats, 8 were between 1911 and 1920. This is the cleaned up version of the Buff I got last Wednesday, also from the teens, as were the 2 Mercs from this week. And this park is literally 10 minutes from my house. It only took 6 years to find it lol.

Very cool finds! Sometimes the best places are right under our noses and in places we never think to look.

"and it only took me 6 years"....:lol:. Nice finds Mike. You sure do know how to clean up the buffs. I'm going to be taking a drive by the golf course tomorrow to see if the situation has improved.

I love that early Indian Head, and that cleaned up 1916 Buffalo Nickel is gorgeous! It must have been brand new when it was dropped.

Good job! :clapping:

Great finds the Buff looks great, I'm guessing a little salt and vinegar did the trick. Congrats WD

Best spot I ever found is a mile from my house. WD It took me a year to find. Amazing what we miss in our own back yard. Must be like fishing everyone always goes to the other side of the Lake. Go figure. WD

Nice! Finding a Buffalo with a good date around here is as rare as seeing a live buffalo in your back yard. ;)
