Hit the Sidewalk Demo again recovered a IHP, looks like 1902.

[Ant]

Can anyone make out the date on this indian head penny (another first)? One thing about this site, all of the find have come from an area about 8'x8' in size. This is most likely because the area where the finds are is on a side street, where the sidewalks have not been replaced for quite some time. This view of the site is of the main street side. Where the sidewalks have been replaced and MD'er hunted out long ago.

I think is a 1903. An 1863 would be copper nickel, and has a smaller date.
Thanks for the post. I like to see the pictures of the locations. Looks like a spot I would have to hit.
WTG!

It’s amazing what a little soaking in vegetable oil will do. I don't think anyone got it right, I had no idea. It looks like 1902 to me everyone. If anyone disagrees, or is not sure, I can post a picture in a day or two. Let me know, it’s back in the soak for now.

Hi gypsyheart.

I think it's a leaf that was used on the border of a picture frame. I remember seeing mirror and picture frames adorned with leafs like this. The frames where painted gold. I think the two marks are solder marks that held it in place. I just posted the other things for the heck of it.
