1902 IHP. Aint much but sure beats a wheat

[Scrappy]

I have hunted out about 150 wheats from various locations before this lone IHP. I've been in the gutter with finds lately after a blanked copper and aforementioned wheaties, so this brightened my day. Subsequently I was rained on 5 minutes later but that's a-ok

Cheers!

I've heard it's hard to find those not toasted so good on you!

I have hunted quite a few times and found less. Nice one.

Sharp looking IH. Congrats!

Wow, that's in great shape. The soil around here is not kind to copper. About 1/2 the wheats I have found I could barely get a date off of. I still haven't found an Indian after almost a year of detecting.

You have to get into the old spots. I have hunted a lot of places where they SHOULD be, but not found any. They will also generally ring up in the zinc penny range, so prepare to dig anything just below a wheat penny reading.

Same here on one I found Tuesday evening, so that 1902 is in great shape! I thought it was just the soil around here.

good point pointman...I've scored all my old wheats & Indians in the zinc range,i thought it was a bounty hunter thing..

Nice IH, sure beats wheats...

 

[I-DIG-IT]

Nice digs.

Nice find. We don't see many of them around here. It is WAY easier to find a silver than an IHC. Good job!

Stop bragging! Lol

Stop bragging! Lol

Hey OD, Just trying to make YOU jealous!

It is a fact though, I have 3 IHCs and 41 silver coins, using math, I was able to figure out that IHCs are over 13 times harder to find than silvers.

Scrappy, Again, nice find, sorry for highjacking your thread.. it is OD's fault!

 

[Diggin-N-Dumps]

Yea, I would be totes happy to see that then a damn Wheat..lol
