Howdy Folks. It was a perfect day for hunting. Picked some old sod to hunt today. Scored a really cute buckle & thimble from the same hole. Nice. Got a bunch of head stamped shotgun brass. Many 10 gauge. Dug a huge copper thing very deep. Also an old iron shovel handle very deep too. I got a pretty nice 1882 Indian Head Cent. Love it. Life is sweet! Thanks for stopping by. Kurios1

Man oh man! I've dug a bunch of shotgun shells from the 1800's and early 1900's, but I've never dug an Indian Head Penny. Nice job!!!

I hope you get one soon. They are my favorite US coin design. Love those little green Indians!

Nicely done Kurios, I'm happy to see that there are still a few northerners able to dig a little soil.
Congratulations on your finds
