Went for a two hour hunt and came home with some keepers. 9 wheats, a 1923 buffalo nickel, a Good for 5 cents token, and a super nice 1868 indian Head.
Grading it here it should be worth over $100.00!!!!!! YEEE HAAA!!!! I will have the coin guy look at it soon! Very sharp detail. Need to clean a little more dirt out of the nooks and crannies, but she is sweet! It looks better than the pics!

I was pleased with the condition of my 1868 Indian until I saw yours! She's a beauty, and those other finds are great too.

Last year I dug two 68's and a 69' IH's, but the only good thing I can say about my finds was that they may make G4 grade at best, yours is beautiful, great find.

Sweet! I don't have a Redbook on me, but If it hadn't been dropped in the ground, I'm pretty sure it'd be worth a lot more than just $100 with that much detail. lol I know that it HAS been in the ground (even though it looks great), and who knows what it could be worth now, but I still like to think like that 8) Congrats!

Red book in vf20 $125, That is a very nice coin. Congrats on you find, I found my first $100 penney last week is was a 1931s it would have to grade au50 to match yours. They are fun when you get them home and find out what you have. Keep swinging that coil & have fun.

Don't use any kind of chemicals on it. Soap and water and your fingers (not fingernails) only. You don't want to use anything that may be abrasive.
