***Update*** Turns out the no date Indian is a fatty. I tumbled it and noticed the back did not have a shield at the top of the wreath. That means it can only be an 1859. My new oldest coin find.



Mangum invited me out to hunt an 1885 house. It was one of my first old house hunts. I had an incredible hunt. I got my first shield nickel, my first two Indian day, and my first three Mercury dime day. I also got some really interesting relics. Thanks Mangum for an awesome time.
