Told a buddy at one time that I couldn't wait until I found an indian head, and wouldn't u know it i've found plenty now. I was just reading my detector wrong, who knows what all I've passed up.

1901
1899
189*-who knows
1907
1908-found in my cas register at my old job

That 64 is in great shape!

Wow, that 1864 is nice. Does it have the L? If not, it's still a great coin. I have only dug one indian cent. I did the same as you...read the detector wrong. Indians read as zinc pennies on my machine...which until recently, I ignored.

Nice coins indeed...

Wow. They don't get much prettier than that 1864. Any time I manage to dig an IH, I consider it a great day. They're somewhat scarce around my part of the world. HH, Eric

Nice job on the Indian's that 64 is nice, I have a 64 from last season that is perfect...It seems the older coins in that date range come out of the ground better...once you get to the 1900s the seem to go downhill...

Good job TnT

On a lot of machines they read as a common clad penny, so people skip over them. Gotta dig those pennies !

 

[Charlene]

You just never know until you dig!

I was reading it wrong because some pennies (like 1980'ish) would come up as like 62-67, not quite a penny/dime reading on my XLT. I started to dig them anyway and started finding a bunch of them.

OH CRAP, I'VE BEEN DOING THE SAME THING!
