Indians and Wheats but no silver

[toasted]

I always hear people say that indians and especially wheat pennies mean there should be silver around. I have hunted many places where this is true but also a lot where that is not the case. Today I hit an old church that I have never been to before. I immediately started hitting wheats and some clad. I ended up with 9 Wheats including a 1909,10 and 11. I also got three nice condition Indians(1880, 86,96). The silver never came. There may be one hiding in there but I think dimes and quarters were just more tightly held on to back in the day. Especially in these small rural farming communities

Well done, ,
Each coin is over 100 years old.
Congrats

I'd be happy with that! Maybe somebody was there in the past and dug the silver out and left the copper coins. At any rate I'd be willing to bet there is silver there somewhere!

Id like to be good enough to know what is a wheat penny and what is silver.

Nice finds! I dug 36 wheats at one site before I found one silver, and this was over numerous trips to the site.
