2 months of finds (plus I'm over 20 V's for the year (22)) MEGA POST
Hi all,
I have been very busy. Haven't gotten out as much and then, finding things like Indian Heads that take time to clean haven't helped the cause of posting. But, I have caught up on my cleaning (everything but some wheats) so here is the long post of many finds.
First, Shiny to V or Shiny to IH ratio has been low for me, but here is my shiny from Oct and Nov (on 3 separate hunts). The whitened BBQ comes from my in-laws in Indy and is my 4th BBQ on the year. I switched to a 15x12 SEF coil in early Oct, and hence the scratch on the merc (was not used to pinpointing small items).

1892, 1920-s, 1943-P

Second, I am sure what all you have been salivating for is my collection of V nicks, 6 more to bring me to a grand total of 22 for 2010 (maybe I'll get up to 25?)

dates are: (Top L-R) 1901, 1891, 1902 (Bottom) no-date (#20 on year), 1906, 1906

Next, for your view pleasure, are my several Indian heads:

dates (top l-r) 1891, '96, '97, 1906 (bottom) 1882, 1900, '04, '07

I'd be remiss not to include in this feast, a picture of miscellaneous items, including a religious medallion to 'our lady of the snows, Belleville, ILL' (a timely find for sure), my first Goetz token ever which I found in the end of Sept with Clad, and a 1926 Buff.


I'll deprive you not of grain in this meal, so not pictured I got the following wheat: '10, '11, '11, 17, 18d, 18s, 19, 20-s, 22 ?, 27, 34, 35, 39, 39, 39, 41, 41, 42, 45, 46-d, 50, 57-d.

This 1922 may be a no D or weak D, but it is so toasted who can say.
Finally, for dessert, and it is wafer thin, I found in the area an 1862 Italian 2 centisimi piece (I think D-dub found a silvery 10c one earlier this year).


Better get a bucket
