In a short hunt tonight, I got a buffalo, wheat, mystery button and this beautiful little bucket lister at my pounded Pomander site. Nothing beats finding a bucket lister. It's a great feeling

You made a great find, I still love them flying eagles. Congrats!
 
Thats great Toasted!!
Congrats on your 1st. And with a date.. even better. .
Now you will be pulling them alot..lol
 
Dang, I need a pounded site like that. Congrats on pulling the bucket lister. :occasion14: I'm so jealous, still looking for my Flying Eagle. Glag to see you score big time!!!
 
nice FE... congratulations!
 
One of likely very few remaining to be found,

Congrats!
 
Congrats on your find and being able to scratch it off the list, reading the date makes it that much sweeter.
 
Congrats on F E.
 
Thanks all. I really thought I'd be knocking a Barber or seated quarter off my list first. My question is why did they switch to the IHP after only two years of the FE
 
Congrats on a SWEET coin . . . !
 
A toast to you Toasted for the datable Flying Eagle. Every time a pop out a dirt encrusted penny I try to will it to be one of those rare beauties. So far mine have all turned out to be Indian Heads. Maybe one these days...
 
Still haven't got the fatty Indian but a fatty FE works for me:headbang:
 
Awesome! I love the design of the FE more than any other penny. Still waiting to take it off my bucket list. And you have a date! Wonderful! Congrats!
 
got my 1st FE back in March, 7 months in olive oil and still no date:-(. you could buy my Fatty IH on feebay LOL
 
Sweet welcome the FE club
 
Congrats on the Flying Eagle!
 
Great find! Awesome that you skipped IHPs and managed to get a nice such FE example.

I've found 50 Indian heads so far but not one early fatty. I just assumed I'd find one before I got a flying eagle. Funny thing is my friend found a fatty IHP at this site on Friday
