My first IH cent! 1899

[Heath j]

I got out to my uncles yesterday to search around where there was rumored to be an old homesite and some civil war activity and I find my first IH cent which is my oldest and best dind of my short detecting career! All i could read through the dirt wastes the 18 and I heard not to rub it so i just dropped it in my pocket and hammered out the whole area without anymore solid hits so i jumped in my car and rushed to my friends house to wash her down to see what it was. Booyah 1899!

Wow... Congratulations. I wish I was so lucky to find another Indian Head. They are extremely rare in Pittsburgh.

 

[Snake Eyes]

1899 was my first Indian as well!

Stick with that site, because as you learn more about detecting, and your machine, your find more there

CHEERS Good Luck!

 

[Woodland Detectors]

A beauty too. Congratulations. I wish you many, many more.
