I found these Indians in a bean field today along with 1 memmy and what looks
like the remains of a brass pocket knife. There was a lot of trash and some bricks.
Must have been a farmhouse there. Best luck , Merf

Nice indians. I wish i could find some that looked like that. I've found four and they are all corroded and barely able to be ID'ed.

EV- These are the best ones I have found in a field. My other field indians were badly corroded also. I think the fertilizer eats them up. Maybe this farmer uses a different kind or maybe the farmhouse was torn down recently and these were in the yard.
The silver I have found in fields is usually discolored by the fertilizer also.
 
Very nice! They are in great shape.
Can't wait to cross one of those off my list.
 
nice IH they are a nice looking coin


HH DDEII ;)

That 1904 still shows a lot of detail. Even online I can make out the liberty across the head band and the diamonds on the ribbon.

Great Indians! Any chance the 1894 is a doubled-date?

Took me a minute to recognize the avatar pic. Glen Campbell with a hangover smiling pretty for the mugshot, right?
 
I bet the beanfield is mosquito free... ;D That is the type of hunt I like right now. Sweet score on a couple IH's. :)
