Camp Otterville, MO, Hunt & Other Finds

The first 3 pictures are of the hunt site from JD's hunt this past weekend.

I dug 6 of the larger sized musket balls, one of which was unfired. And one other fired bullet as well as some smaller musket balls and misc. melted lead. I also got an Eagle I button. It is soaking right now.

The next picture is of my finds from JD's hunt. Big thanks to him and the owners of the property for having the hunt! We all had fun! :)

The final picture shows the two Indian Heads I dug Sunday while stopping at various locaitons on the way back to Indiana. One is soooo cruddy that I can't make out any details but some of the wreath on the back. The next one is 1902.

I dug the third Indian today in a church yard. The year is 1874 and one I needed for my set! :)

This puts me at 66 Indians on the year. I also dug 4 wheats today and 1 on Sunday. This puts me at 380 for the year.

Nice set of finds!
Sounds like you're absolutaly blitzing the coins.
They'll have to start hiding better as none of them are safe from you!!!

Have fun,

Great job on finding them Indian cents - they are getting harder to find all the time - especially the older ones!!! WTG - Hawkeye Jim.

I wish we had more time to visit and hunt so we could get to know each other better. Really great finds for a hunted out area. ;D ;D
