First find of the year. Actually first hole of the year. 1870 Indian head. Super excited. Also found a cool heart piece.

Man that's a super nice date for an IH " I'd try not to over clean it " It looks to have nice details left .

The Heart heel plate is a Relic that still eludes me so , that's a banner in my book.

Continued Great Finds in 2019.

I have concluded that the heart piece is from the bottom of a ladies shoe? This is very interesting to me. I found another thread talking about a similar piece... and they said those pieces come from around 1870s era. I find this interesting... especially after the Indian head. I can’t wait to keep digging. This is the same location where I found what is believed to be a golden pocket watch chain/fob
