Went out to the local beach this morning. Someone had just hunted it from the holes I saw. I plugged along anyway. Stayed until my timber wolf howlers started acting up. I went back home (half a mile) to get my Jolly Rogers and came back for alittle more. After that I went to a school I recently found a couple silver dimes at and decided to go high disc to dig coins only due to the rain I knew was coming. Tried to only dig the deeper signals. I was surprised to find the copper that was pretty deep. Six feet away I found the 1880 indianhead. I can't get a date off the copper. All I can see is the bust facing left. All in all I got my digging fix in for the day.
Good luck out there,
Mike in NJ

You are right, Mike, no help.
From what I could see when playing with the
other photos, I would agre that you have a
Georgius II Rex from somewhere during his reign
from 1727-60.
