I went out this morning to the field that little Johnny found the Indian arrow point, nothing after about an hour and a half. So I packed it up and went to "the farm that nothing can be found" An hour into it I found this beat up 1869 Indian Woo hoo, nice date!

Too bad on the condition. I havent dug that year so you got me beat anyway. Nice find
 

Cool, that's an oldie
 

Nice date. Shame it's so toasted. A lot of my Indians come up the same way.
 

That is a good date Brad. Here is one I dug back in 2011. The guy I took hunting with me that day also dug an 1869, but his was toast.

That farmers family (metal detectorist) did not like the sound of a Indian, OR the old family liked throwing them at each other in the fields!
 

Nice one, i was hunting with my buddy Butch this weekend he pulled an 1877 IHC only six inches down, if you would like to see it, its posted on findmall.com under Marco detectors...
 

Congrats on your IH find & wishing you many more while out dirt fishing.

Cleaned up
 

Nice find brad, I managed a semi key 1866 indian last year in fairly decent shape
 

Congratz on a nice dated IHP!

Hmmmm, then there's unlimited potential!

Some of my best finds were within Indians range for me:

Kg1-3's, 12g gold/diamond ring, cut Spanish silver, pull tabs, a seated dime love token, GW buttons, and so on. Something great is coming your way Brad. Keep going!
