Golden dollar ~ 1899 Indian Head Cent ~ 1916-s Walikng Liberty Half ~ and a GIRAFFE

[oddcoins]

Hello!

I got out for a couple hours today! Dang, the ground is hard as a rock, but I still managed to snag a few goodies. A junk costume jewelry giraffe, 2007-D John Adams presidential golden dollar, 1899 Indian Head cent, 1916-s Walking Liberty Half dollar (KEY DATE), a few wheat cents, and plenty of modern clad.

This hobby never ceases to amaze me. The 1899 Indian was maybe 2 inches deep, but the 1916-s Walking Lib half was about 7 or 8 inches deep in the same strip of grass! WEIRD!! . . . . you just never know . . . gotta dig all them targets!

The Walking Liberty must have been next to some iron ~ there's lots of rust on it.

Thanks for looking!
Neil

Yep! Fascinating hobby! I have a lot of trouble skipping any target anymore. I found my oldest coin this year, a 1724 Half Penny. It was just barely covered over by a layer of dirt!!! I almost dismissed it as surface slaw. I picked it up because I was doing my part to clean up the park.

BOY! Was I surprised!

Exceptionally good saves!

WTG!
HH!

Sweet big silver!!! It definitely must have been next to some iron judging by the way it looked before you cleaned it off. Congrats!
