Did some park hunting on Friday and plucked a few for my pile.

Also got out for just a bit today and uncovered a couple of shiny ones plus a bonus IH.

I've got some new spots to try this week and I'm hoping at least one of them will get me happy dancing. lol

Great finds and awesome photos as always, Joe! You seem to have great luck finding Indian Heads! What's the date on the toasted one? (At least it's colorful!) The other two look really nice. Good job on the two silver dimes too!

Good luck with your new spots! I hope the happy dance is in your future! thumbsup01

Good hunting Joe, I thought I could make out the date on the crusty one...1877? Maybe it's just my computer but everytime I look at one that has no date I wonder if it may be the &quot:daydream:NE :twirlingeyes:. Keep up the great hunting and hope to see you out and about before the ground gets hard.

Thank you folks. I appreciate it. :)

Yeah, we do get the nasty ones here from time to time. But most are in pretty good shape.



Man , you sure find a lot of nice Indians !! :perfect10: thumbsup01

The IH's have been plentiful this year. Not sure why, but I've almost doubled last years count. :dontknow:



Great hunting |:cheering: I might have missed it, are you at 100 IH's yet? I don't think that toasted one counts :poke: lol

Thanks Randy. No, I still need 4 or 5. Hopefully I'll hit 100 by year end.
And yes... the toasted one counts. :yes: lol

Thank you Joe. The '90 is a nice addition to my collection.

Bummer. Hopefully you'll get some soon that are in better condition. Thanks. thumbsup01

Sure... it is 1877. :cheesysmile:
Actually the date is 1891 on the bad one. Hope to see you to. :yes:

Hoping that you get to do the happy dance at your new spots. Very nice silver and IH's, that 1900 looks really great. Congrats and what type of camera do you use?

Thank you Al. I tried one of the new spots today and was put in my place. crying01 No happy dancing from there.

For my metal detecting stuff I use an older Nikon D50. It's a decent camera, but not one I will cry over if it gets lost, stolen, dusty or banged
around while out digging holes. :)
