1st silver (quarter?) of 2010

[SkyPirate]

I was detecting an old homesite this morning down in Fuquay. I found my first silver coin of 2010 and 2 Indians. There are no visible dates on any of them and I think the silver is a quarter.

I love those cowboy quarters. The indian head penny on the right that looks silverish is a "Fat indian" I think from the design on the obverse it is possibly 1865? Someone here will know.

Nice finds. that indian is a 1859 no sheild on top's a dead givaway.

 

[fathead]

I believe they are called standing liberty quarters.

Very cool find.

So I got the year wrong. Sorry about that I haven't found anything that old in a long time.

Here is why they are called cowboy quarters.
